Concerning __, NATHAN BOLLINGER said to JOHN FENDER in SCANRADIO:
NB> If you can get one of the "spread-spectrum" phones, that would be even

NB> There's no way a scanner can keep up with them!
If I understand correctly, spread-spectrum phones broadcast over a broad
range of frequencies at the same time, so that the signal at any given
frequency is below the level of normal background noise. Only if you have
similar receiving equipment and know exactly where to look can you find the
signal. That's why scanners can't lock in on them.
... A blinding bolt of crimson careens across the sky! It's NATHAN
LLINGER.
