In 1993 the FCC preempted all restrictive state and local laws and ruled (FCC PR 91-36) that it is legal for licensed amateur radio operators, who have a copy of their FCC license in their possession, to operate - anywhere in the USA - an amateur radio transceiver capable of receiving police and other emergency services frequencies in their vehicle.
