I just spent 2 hours organizing a new profile for my 436, saved it, started a new profile to import the current state of my 436, tried to open my new profile again and it is the same as the 2nd profile I created!!!! WTF? Is Undo really hard to program these days?? What an antiquated POS.

Thank goodness for Amazon Return Policy. Today I got their PRIME BCD536HP for $508.93 + Tax - main listing for this scanner It came in a sealed BCD536HP Box - opened it up...and wow - it was a USED BC780xlt.... I heard of someone else having this exact issue. (on this forum) Very disappointed...

Last month I sent in my Homepatrol1 for service. I followed the directions on the website, sent $70 for the repair and sent return postage (wife sent the proper amount of stamps for return postage). Today I received and invoice stating that $10 more dollars was needed for the part, no problem...

I received my receipt confirmation email today and Uniden has entered my street name incorrectly. Hoping that Paul can get that corrected, otherwise I will try to call them on Monday. SRO# 1996480 They have BEAT LN, it should be BEST LN. This is for a 396XT repair. Thank you Paul. Ron...

I received my 536 back a few days ago. The battery and display issues were fixed. I specifically asked for the headphone issue to be address as well, with a big note attached to the scanner. This was not performed, nor was it noted on my return paperwork. So I just tried to sign up via the...

I have a BCD436HP with the ProVoice update and overall, I love the scanner. It would work perfectly on my local ProVoice system (Harrisonburg/ Rockingham, VA), but there is an issue when TG's are patched together, and the only way to hear the traffic is in the ID search mode. That's the...

It look like the 325 is going up in price. Both Amazon and Bearcat Warehouse had it for around $338 for awhile. Now BW has it for $379. That's quite a jump. Any idea why?

I own both the HP1 & HP2 devices. They're great in concept but the craftsmanship is sub-par to say the least. I've had an HP-1 since 2011. I performed all the necessary updates and rarely moved the unit (spent the extra money to purchase a fitted RAM mount and rarely removed the unit from my...

Uniden, any plans to auto mute Phase 2 encryption talk groups on the x36, xxxp2 or HP-2 scanners like they do on Phase 1 systems?

My BC536HP had the clock reset issue. I signed up for the campaign. A few days later I received instructions from Uniden including the UPS shipping label. My unit, aside from the clock issue, was in mint condition. I brought my scanner to the local UPS Store to package and ship. The nimrod...

In a recent (hijacked) thread here, I posed what I take to be two reasonable, and as yet unanswered questions to this forum's resident marketer and company shill, UPMan: 1) Has Uniden corrected the most egregious defects in x36 radios in current production runs? In other words, are they "safe"...

I have been an avid scanner listener since the mid 90’s where I could still listen to cell phone and cordless phone conversations in my area with a UNIDEN scanner. Of course this was one of many things to listen to until the digital era became the new kid on the block. I never thought I would...

UPMan Paul Opitz said in a new thread: Why Oh Why Paul Opitz, Why Oh Why ? Why can't you just release the update that was due the end of this month, and add the ProVoice and other digital stuff in December or January. You are not being fair to the folks who have patiently waited two years...

I've been an infrequent visitor here since the unmasking and ensuing discourse involving the several manufacturing/design defects of the x36 radios -- this in spite of Voyager's often creative, albeit thin defenses of Uniden's honor. So, I may have missed UPMan's answer to this question: do...

Taking this topic to its own thread, anyone want to guess what that will be? First thing I noticed is it's stated as singular, and not plural. Maybe a full blown "Analyze" effort this time? I had hoped for conventional P25 Unit ID display with an option to skip over encrypted (ENC)...

Several months ago, I challenged Uniden to "step up to the plate", take responsibility for some of the technical issues which have arisen with the 436 and 536 units, and extend the warranty period for these units (the so-called "professional series" of scanners) to three years from the date or...

I have just purchased a new BCD536 Scanner, I have it set up for location scanning via GPS. All is great and it follows my travels well. One major issue that has me stumped is on MPSCS system in Michigan, Kalamazoo County Sheriff is not encrypted but scanner will not stop on any of there...

Sadly, I bring no good news to this thread. If you are looking for a 'happy, 'feel good' reading experience, stop now and go elsewhere... For the curious amongst you, all of the following information is available from public sites. Come to your own conclusions. Links UNIDEN CORP...

Hi I'm kinda new to this but heed help . I brought a 536hp scanner through Amazon .com I have two problems . First one is I have a new computer and keep getting asked for a code for the program to program the scanner which I no longer have . 2nd is I think Uniden need to replace my wifi dongle...

Is this the weird noise coming from the speaker that everyone is complaining about? It occurs before and after a transmission. Sounds like 2-3 quiet beeps.. Here is a link to the video. Listen closely... IMG 4192 - YouTube
