It is extremely unlikely for a police officer to monitor walkie talkie channels (that is if they're GMRS/FRS radios). If you are using CB radios, the likelihood is much greater since that is what many speeding truckers use. For the most part, GMRS channels are widely unused and very light on traffic, thus it would be a waste of time to monitor them. I would estimate that the likelihood of an officer listening in on a conversation is about .000001%, if not less. However, if an individual is being targeted and is known to be using a walkie talkie, they most certainly would use one to see what they can hear. Many drug smugglers use handheld radios since they can't be tracked (as cell phones can), and they are useful in passing information over a radius of 5 mi.Can police list in on walkie talkie conversations?
Anyone with a scanner can hear those conversations.
They are not encoded or encrypted, so expect that nothing you say there will be private.Can police list in on walkie talkie conversations?
A walkie talkie conversation is an unclassified transmission, so it wouldn't be too hard for the police or anyone else for that matter
