You clearly can't listen to an (one-way) open mic; even on 450/455 MHz.
You clearly can't capture the video feed being beamed from one place to
another. It seems pretty clear that you can monitor a two-way radio
conversation. Define "two-way radio" however you like.
Here is how the media agencies around Indiana classify their respective
frequencies (notice the list is almost entirely "2way"):
http://www.broadcast.net/~sbe25/450Mhz.html
http://www.broadcast.net/~sbe25/455Mhz.html
"Repeater Output" is also a pretty good bet for "two way radio" since
one-way repeaters are pretty pointless.
