Mission and Purpose

TheNet411.Net is intended to serve as an unofficial compilation of Butte County Law Enforcement and Fire Protection radio transmissions and to provide a means of broadcasting those radio transmissions to the public.
 
Laws Regarding The Use Of Scanner Feeds

The vast majority of radio transmissions you hear on these audio feeds are fully legal to hear. However, due to the nature of radio technology, communications which are not legal to hear may be heard from time to time. Communications which are not legal to hear include cellular telephones and any scrambled or encrypted communications. In addition, it is a violation of California Law to disclose or use intercepted communications to commit a crime (such as eluding law enforcement) or for financial gain (such as a business listening to a competitor's dispatcher to pick up their customers.) Some state and local laws also impose additional restrictions on scanner use, particularly use of radios that can hear police in vehicles.  For the purposes of this web site, it is assumed that those restrictions include listening to these feeds with portable computers and wireless links while in a vehicle. However, even in states with such laws, you may legally listen to police, fire and other public-safety communications while at home. 

This information regarding scanner laws is designed to be a brief summary of US scanner laws; it is not intended to serve as legal advice or to replace the counsel of a qualified attorney.  Most prosecutions have either involved attempts to obstruct law enforcement or the disclosure of cellular phone calls.  The vast majority of scanner listeners do not run into problems with the law.   Listeners in the United States may legally monitor all broadcasts of this web site.

Scanner listeners who hear about nearby emergencies including house fires or car accidents should not venture to the emergency site.  Listeners should not accidentally block access to the site or distract officials who may be acting under severe time and space constraints.
