No, it doesn't do digital. The following thread should answer most of the questions you may have about it:

They could very well mean APCO 16, which is technically correct BUT I think it's just a typo just like it also says "Trunktracker IV" when it isn't and it also says it has a "backlit keypad" when it doesn't. (The BC246T is a Trunktracker III, they discussed this a little bit in the link I provided above)

Yup, that Uniden spec that says "APCO" is pretty confusing. Suffice to say it's not APCO-25, especially at $230US. That said, a neat looking scanner.

This page went live before review instead of after.
It is being corrected, now. Look for accurate information later this morning, and sorry for the confusion.

This site has a good general description of the BC246T http://www.scannersunlimited.com/uniden/index.html 8)

Except for the description of the channels. Best bet, if you want the full impact of what this scanner will do, is download the O/M from here. Or read the "Official BC246T Thread" here.

Or, wait a week or two and buy one.

Don't be shocked, I re-read the original post and saw how it's wording
may be misconstrued,

,so I've edited and it should be now acceptable to sensitive people.
