Here's the frequencies for the new cordless phones.  You can set
the channels up on most scanners so you can listen in on the neighbor-
hood gossip, etc...

     You should be able to hear both sides of the conversation on either
the base or handset frequencies due to the telephone hybrid circuitry.

     By the way, those order-taking boxes you see at some McDonald's
and Jack-in-the-Box drive-thru restaurants...you will find them operating 
simplex on one or more of the following frequencies:

                        35.020
                        154.570
                        154.600
                        157.595
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Those cute little wireless microphones you see professional singers
using?  Snoop around:

                        36.70
                        37.10     These aren't the cheap Radio Shack
                        37.16     variety of wireless mike- they're the
                        40.68     expensive, professional variety...
                        42.89
                        44.87
                        47.27
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
All frequencies are in megahertz and are shared with other low power, short
range utility services, so you may hear some strange things depending upon
your location and antenna.
