@George: That'd be the Winter olympics in Vancouver. Not exactly the USA, but close enough for concern in this day and age.
@Nebulo: Not that I disagree with you completely, but calling it a "limited scanner" is a bit of an understatement. It can also transmit on that range of frequencies, something which isn't trivial for the cheap money and handheld kit.
