Program a radio, go to jail

[High_order1]

I didn't know where in here to post this. Feel free to move as you see fit.

From another list I receive, I saw this snippet:

Police also nabbed three men they allege were illegally programming radios to broadcast on police frequences.

Favio Noyo, 38, was charged with dealing in stolen property. The other two, Sergio Plasencia, 21, and Ernesto Garcia, 20, allegedly self-taught on the Internet, were charged with illegally transmitting on a police transmission.

They were caught, police say, after programming for undercover detectives.

This was part of a sting in Florida. Wonder what their BL handles were...

Note that none of the charges are for *programming* the radios (the subject of this thread).

There is another thread on this story in the General forum

Let's continue the discussion there.

Thanks!
