Hi I'm looking to purchase a bct15x and am wondering if it will pick up my local pd? Would this be the right scanner for my town? Anybody familiar with Riverhead? Thanks

Hey everyone, I have been a scanner enthusiast for 15 years starting out with a pro-93 and upgrading to a pro-96 and for the last few years been using a bcd-396xt. So I am not exactly new to this, to trunking, or even to ARMER. I haven't really mastered the 396 yet. It's more of a time...

Curious if any BCT15X users in Washington State could help me out. Looking for config files to program King County. This scanner is the most confusing radio I've ever used. Thanks in advance!

I have just obtained a really old scanner. It is the Bearcat 220. I bought this scanner from a thrift shop thinking that it wouldn't work, but would be a really cool collectable. I plugged it in and to my surprise it made static noise. I have been reading, but cannot find enough information. I...

Does anybody know of a reliable scanner repair person for an old Bearcat 4 crystal scanner. I realize it doesn't have any value. But it had been working for my local analog VHF fire department until recently. I guess I just want to get it fixed more for nostalgia purposes than anything else...

I Just very recently bought a 60XLT-1 and I was thinking about using my BNC-F adapter to have a longer make-shift antenna with some 75 ohm coax I have on hand, but I noticed the connectors were slightly different. It appears that the scanner antenna does not have a center pin in the connector...

My friend purchased a Uniden Bearcat BC75XLT hand-held radio. I read online how to program it and set it up and did so. At first, when there was no transmission, it was silent and then when there was a transmission we heard it clearly. Then all of a sudden, in between transmissions there was...

I have a Uniden Bearcat BC148XLT scanner. I was previously able to pickup the Buffalo NY police frequencies, but recently I am unable to do so. All I get from the channels is buzzing or static. Do you know if they have changed something with their frequencies? Is there a resolution I can try...

I have an older Uniden 30 channel/10band scanner that accepts alkaline or Ni-Cd batteries. There is a little selector switch for Alkaline or Ni-Cd inside the battery cover. Currently have Ni-Cds installed and charge them with the wall charger. I was wondering if I could still use the wall...

Hey guys, I need help learning how to use preemptive priority with this scanner (BCD996XT). The easy to read users manual didnt help me much. Basically I have 1 system, in that system is 2 TG's...local police and local ems. In my police talk group I have 2 channels (8782, 3776), in my ems talk...

Is it possible to rig together a simple antenna for a BearCat III using scrap wire, etc.? I was given this scanner without an antenna or power cable. I was able to wire it up to an old PC power supply. I'm getting lots of static on all the channels and some sound rhythmic enough to make me...

Any tricks to listening to Newark FD? I know they are on NJ PSIC network. Can't get them on my scanner for some reason.

I stumbled upon this....I sure wish Uniden had a US version....either CB/HAM/FRS and a scanner. http://madelectronics.com.au/shop/download/pdf/UH_8080NB-2.pdf

I have an older Uniden Bearcat BC350C mobile scanner that I've had sitting in my garage for the last couple years unhooked. I recently dug it out since I'm planning on mounting it in the glove compartment of my car. However, after plugging it in and powering it on to check to make sure it still...

We are looking for someone in Los Angeles who can program our scanner. Willing to pay for the service. We tried but computer won't connect to the scanner. Might be because we use Windows 7. Thanks

Alright, so I am thinking about getting this scanner -- Uniden Bearcat BC346XT Police Scanner Radio the BC346XT. I am also going to be getting ARC-XT basic for it so I can learn how to program it. I just downloaded the demo to mess around a bit and see what it's like, but I have some questions...
