Does a state even have jurisdiction over wireless?

Wouldn't this fall under the jurisdiction of the FCC, not Florida? Wireless AP/adapters are Part 15 devices, and there's no law against receiving such signal, encrypted or otherwise (unlike cell phones, which is a specific exemption in federal law for unauthorized reception, because until that was passed it was legal to "tap on" on conversations).

It seems like this law would be null and void, even if access point was secured and this person was actively breaking into it.
