    Slightly OT, but I believe that in the UK, use of a scanner (at least for aviation monitoring) may be illegal. Dave Pascoe from LiveATC.net has often stated that they don't have any UK feeds because it is illegal to do so.

    It is illegal to own a scanner in the UK but they don't enforce it, it's a law that dates back to the early days. The reason Live ATC don't have feeds is that it is illegal to broadcast anything except regular radio
