   Yes, I'm *intensely* interested in how this turns out. Espically as it 
*appears* they got the entire conversation in question. Unless the Speaker 
was in essentially one location the whole time, it suggests they had both the 
hardware and knowledge to follow his conversation from cell to cell. That 
plus the presence of a recorder suggests it was much more than casual 
listening.
 
   I mean, we seem to have violations of the TDDRA, the ECPA *and* the 
Communications Act....
 
   (A newspaper story today says they used a Radio Shack scanner, but no 
model was named....)
