My only encounter occurred in 1985 when a  Fairfax officer took a look into 
my car while i was in the 7-11 to see  where he was hearing the state 
police coming from When the dispatcher said  Fairfax to XXX  he took a look into 
my parked car.  Another time in  McLean an officer also Fairfax but a 
detective overheard Arlington calling  unit 365 I think it was He said Hey that's 
me I told Him it was an Arlington  dispatcher so he said ok guess i'm safe.

IIRC, it was illegal to have a scanner in your car as  recently as the late 
1970's anywhere in VA. Or so I was told by the local  "Officer Friendly" 
when 
he was taking my Bearcat crystal radio away from  me in 1976. This happened 
in the McLean/Falls Church area and I do not  remember which department did 
 
it.)
