Well, I broke down and got me a BCT15 for my truck I had a 996T and I love it but don't need digital on the road. I gotta say, the display in on the BCT15 leaves very much to be desired. I was extremely dissapointed that it could only do orange as opposed to the 996T. It's so orange and dark, it's impossible to read durring the daytime. (It's installed in the dash) At night, it's ok but the dark orange just doesn't work for mobile use. I've got it on the brightest it will go and it's still, not suitable. So, what I'm thinking about doing is replacing the LED's in the face with green ones. I thought I had seen this topic come up in the past and I even remember Paul saying it would void the warranty but it's worth it to be able to see. Has anyone tried this yet?
Paul, if you happen to read this, are these available from Uniden? I'm thinking they may have put dual color LED's in the 996T. I won't know till I open them up on the bench.
