Decoding pager traffic is pretty trivial with a scanner and a Poc32

You may want to check the law out first of course.

to have a problem with cellular detection in that only law enforcement
is allowed to have devices that scan on those frequencies.  A better bet
might merely be jamming them all, but that is also illegal under FCC
regulations.

Greetings!

I have several areas were no wireless communications
are allowed cell phones, wireless PDAs, text pagers,
802.11x, etc. I frequently monitor these areas using NetStumbler but that will only catch 802.11x traffic. How do I detect the rest of the wireless traffic? Thanks!
