Interesting, does it have anything different on it from the regular international 3600XLT version?
The Uniden UBCD3600XLT and the Uniden UBCD436PT are essentially the same physical handheld scanner platform marketed for different regions, sharing identical core hardware, trunking capabilities, and microSD card architectures. The main difference lies in regional firmware configurations, out-of-the-box digital formats, and localized factory pre-programming

Would think a 160/260 DN would work very well chasing analog signals. Comes with NXDN and DMR. Sometimes regret selling mine. When I compared the 160 to the 200 and R30 on air band, did about as good as the higher radios.
I had the 160DN for a while and really liked it, but it lacks any "auto store" features, so requires you to sit and use it or hook it up to a PC. I replaced mine with a BCD325P2 and finds it works very well.
I have a 160DN and a 325P2 however I need to run them off power rather than batteries.
The other limitation is when I find a frequency I lock it out. But most scanners have a limit on how many.
I used Discovery on the 436PT and got 900 hits. A lot being digital signals however I did get analog frequencies. At this stage I am only adding frequencies into my spreadsheet that have a CTCSS or DCS tone. I am aware some frequencies will have both a transmit and recieve CTCSS/DCS
