[I ain't 'fraid uh no bugs]

I'm not sure the other individual knew what a scanner is.  The phone
calls you hear on a dish cannot be understood with the normal
satellite receiver.  The baseband output can be connected to a
single sideband receiver though and understood quite well.  The
original poster was correct in saying that you only here one side
of the conversation.  I guess this would be no different than listening
to the normal mobile telephone repeaters.
