Yes but ... A corded phone isn't very secure either because if you have a connection point outside of your home, guess what!??? If somebody wants to tap your pair(s) anywhere outside guess what??? I have a scanner which will receive analog cellular which was manufactured before law was passed prohibiting scanners to be sold which don't trap out that particular segment. However, we all know that in most cases, a scanner can be modified to re-instate the cellular phone frequencies! However, it is harder to decode a digital signal and most persons who are scan buffs wouldn't invest nor take the time to bother. Have you ever listened to a digital CDMA or similar signal? Ha! Yes a typical 900MHZ cordless or other device can be monitored on any scanner which will receive that frequency range. But if it is a device which uses DSS, that protocol although yes, as I said, could be decoded. However, as I also said, would require much more sophistication on the part of the hacker. They obviously have more time and money and definitely not much of a life! Amanda Lee
