I'm wanting to know what the frequencies used are in the USA for scanners re 
mobile phone frequencies.  From what i've read it seems that most scanners 
are blocked from those frequencies.  What are they.
Here in the UK, mobile phones can be forund between 800 and 820mhz and again 
between 890mhz and 950mhz.
Heres a list of frequency allocations in the UK. 
85-88mhz  low band PMR mainly water, electric companys and the RAC 88-108
