Close CallTM RF Capture Technology - you can set the scanner so it detects and provides information about nearby radio transmissions.

Dynamically Allocated Channel Memory - your scanner’s memory is organized so that it more closely matches how radio systems actually work, making it
easier to program and use your scanner and determine how much memory you have used and how much you have left.

Preprogrammed Systems - your scanner is preprogrammed with over 400 channels covering police, fire, and ambulance operations in the 25 most
populated counties in the US.

Quick Keys – You can set the scanner so you can quickly select systems and groups by using the keypad. This makes it easy to listen to or quickly lock out those systems or groups you don’t want to scan.

Pager Screen – You can set the scanner so it ignores hits generated by common pager frequencies while using the Close Call or search features.

12 Service Searches - frequencies are preset in separate public safety, news, amateur radio, marine, railroad, air, CB radio, FRS/GMRS, racing, TV broadcast,
FM broadcast, and special searches, to make it easy to find specific transmissions.

Lockout – You can lock out any system, group, frequency, or channel while scanning. If you lock out a system or group, any channels belonging to that system
or group are also locked out. You can lock out up to 200 frequencies. The scanner skips locked-out frequencies while using the Close Call feature or while searching.

CTCSS and DCS Squelch Modes – prevent interference from stations not using the mode you select.

Audio AGC – Helps automatically balance the volume level between different radio systems.

Fire Tone-Out Standby – Lets you set the scanner to alert you if a two-tone sequential page is transmitted. You can set up to 10 settings (transmit frequency, tone frequencies) for standby monitoring.

Broadcast Screen – Sets the scanner so it ignores Close CallTM or search hits on known broadcast frequencies.

Custom Screen – Lets you input up to 10 frequency ranges that the scanner will ignore during Close CallTM or search operation.

Dropout Delay – You can set whether the scanner pauses at the end of a transmission to wait for a reply. You can set the delay time for each system you scan,
and while searching and using the Close CallTM feature.

Attenuator – You can set the scanner’s attenuator to reduce the input strength of strong signals by about 18 dB received by the scanner.

Repeater Reverse – You can set the scanner so it switches to the input frequency on a conventional repeater system.

Channel Alert – You can set the scanner so it alerts you when there is activity on any channel you specify.

Memory Check – Lets you see at a glance how much total memory is left.

Scan and Search Operation – Lets you include selected service searches or custom search ranges during normal scan operation.

Custom Alerts – For each alert in the scanner (such as channel alert, Close Call alert, emergency alert), you 13 can select from
9 different tone patterns and also set the alert volume level independently from the main volume level.

Automatic Channel Step – Accepts frequencies on any valid channel step, even if it does not fall within the band plan’s default step.

Frequency Step – Lets you select a frequency step (5, 6.25, 7.5, 8.33, 10, 12.5,15, 20, 25, 50 or 100 kHz) for manual mode
and chain search mode. The scanner’s auto step feature lets you set the scanner so it automatically chooses the correct step.

Quick Recall – Lets you quickly select a specific channel by choosing the system, group, and channel.

Scan/Search Delay – You can set the scanner so it remains on a frequency up to 5 seconds after the last transmission to wait for a possible reply.

Text Tagging – You can name each system, group, channel, talk group ID, custom search range, and SAME group, using up to 16 characters per name.

Unique Data Skip – Allows your scanner to skip unwanted data transmissions and reduces birdies.

Duplicate Frequency Alert – Alerts you if you try to enter a duplicate name or frequency already stored in a system.

Memory Backup – If power is lost or disconnected, the scanner retains the frequencies you programmed in its memory.

Note: The scanner’s frequency coverage is not continuous and does not include the cellular telephone band.

Trunk Tracking

Trunk Tracker IV™ Operation – Follows conversations on analog Motorola, Motorola Astro (APCO 25), EDACS, EDACS SCAT, and LTR trunked radio
systems. The scanner can scan both conventional and trunked systems at the same time.

Control Channel Only Scanning – If the scanner is set to scan Motorola trunking frequencies, you can set it so it scans using only control channel data.
You do not have to program voice channel frequencies into memory in this mode.

Adaptive Digital Threshold – Automatically sets the digital decode threshold for APCO 25 systems.

Weather Search – Lets your scanner receive your local NOAA weather transmission.

SAME Weather Alert – Lets your scanner alert you when a SAME weather alert is transmitted on a NOAA weather channel.
The scanner also displays the transmitted alert type. This helps you quickly find out about severe weather in your area and lets you avoid false alarms.

Search: Service Search – Lets you quickly select and search the scanner’s preprogrammed frequencies.

Custom Search – Lets you program up to 10 custom search ranges. You can search any of these ranges simultaneously.

CTCSS/DCS Search – Lets the scanner search for CTCSS or DCS tones. You can identify up to 50 CTCSS tones and 104 DCS tones.

Quick Search – Lets you search from the currently-tuned frequency if you are searching a conventional system.

Auto Store: Frequency Auto-Store – Automatically stores all active frequencies within a system you select.

Talk Group ID Auto-Store – Automatically stores all new talk group ID’s into a system you select.

Priority Priority Scan – Priority channels let you keep track of activity on your most important channel(s) while monitoring other channels for transmissions.

Priority Plus – You can set the scanner so it scans only the priority channels

Backlight and Power Display and Keypad Backlight – Makes the display and keypad easy to see in dim light. You can adjust the back light so it turns on when you press a key, when squelch breaks during a transmission, or manually.

Low Battery Alert – The scanner alerts you if the batteries need to be recharged or replaced.

Battery Save – You can set the scanner so it reduces the amount of power it needs if there are no transmissions.

Key Controls Key Lock – You can deactivate the scanner’s keys to help prevent accidentally changing the scanner’s programming.

PC Control and Cloning PC Control – You can transfer programming data to and from your scanner and your personal computer, and control the scanner using a computer. This helps you find frequencies listed on the Internet and load them into the scanner. Free PC control and programming software will be available at http://www.uniden.com.

Of course it can... BUT.... do you realize that you're responding to a thread that is almost 4 1/2 years old?? And, that this radio has since been replaced by the Uniden BCD-396XT???
