Some Clubs over here don't particularly like marshals using scanners as there have been instances in the past where people have responded to a request for a red flag BEFORE the Clerk of the Course authorised it
From my own perspective, I'm happy for members of my team to have scanners as they can hear my conversations with race control and work out what I want them to do without me having to run up and down a long pit lane or shout in a most unladylike fashion!
A case in point was some years ago when I had an incident occur at the top end of Donington Pit Lane when the cars were lined up at the bottom end to leave for their practice laps. The chap on the exit had a scanner and therefore could release the cars without delay.
