BCD436HP Specification Questions

DougWare · Dec 6, 2015

Currently, I own a BCD396XT that I keep in my vehicle most of the time. I'm strongly considering purchasing the BCD436HP as a Christmas gift to myself.

The BCD396XT has a few limits that I've had to deal with over the years, specifically the 20 groups and 500 talk groups per system.

I haven't been able to find documentation of the limits on the BCD436HP. Can someone share the limits of the BCD436HP.

BCDx36HP Limitation

There is no limits for TG's or Departments, Nor Radio Unit Id's on the BCDx36HP.
The only limit I'm aware of is the Size of the file. 1 MB

Without getting involved in the question of limits, I just want to say that I bring the 436 with me whenever I drive, and it performs very well sitting in the center cup holder with the stock antenna. Of course, I live in midtown Manhattan, and most of the stuff I listen to is high power PD, FD and NYC trunked frequencies. But it's a great unit if you don't want to permanently mount something and while it's a good size to hold, it does fit into my sports-jacket inner pocket with no problem.

I have one of these:
Button and Belt Clip Holder (Small) - ProClip USA

Mounted to my car using:
Kia Soul 2009-2013 ProClip Angled Mount - ProClip USA

It works great!

On top of that, I have this mount which has a side in mount for my Nexus 6 phablet, that I use for navigation, podcast listening and primarily for Torque ODBII monitoring.

Kia Soul 2010-2013 ProClip Center Mount - ProClip USA

They are not cheap, but they are super easy to install and look great without having to modify anything.
