BCD160DN/BCD260DN: Is this a new Uniden model? BCD260DN

Since Avera says that they have no plans to import the BCD 160DN to Europe (at least not in 2024) I want to buy this scanner in America and send to the Netherlands.
Which webshop would you advice in relation to international shipping of a scanner? Perhaps any European RR-members with personal experience?

I can highly recommend Webtron-X as they have had superb support for their shipping to me of several scanners.
As a EU country the customs will add your countrys VAT tax (for me 25%) on the total including the shipping costs and add their own handling fee. There should be no import custom fee for a receiver. Shipping will probably be something like 50 EUR.

Scanner masters are sold out, zip scanners ship in march, and bearcat ware house pre-order is now for ship out of March, so it doesn't matter what store on line you buy from its still a waiting game to wait for it to come out.
Wait for whenever I guess. Should have been out by now. Not sure why they are waiting.

i say if you do not need the new scanners just buy a 15X or 125at and be happy, lol
The 325P2 I just bought will be good enough along with my R30 and my SDS200. Doubt I will buy a new one but waiting on Icom new handheld that I want to see what users say. Doubt I will get that one too but will wait for user reports.

Icom makes some good Radios there 501H and 501M is good radios too
Wish Icom would make an upgraded R30. Not much to improve but if they could take the guts out of the R30 and put it in the case of the Icom 52a with that large display, would buy it in a heart beat.

i googled the icom 30, seems its discontinued, is there going to be a replacement for it?
It has been discontinued well long enough for them to list a replacement and they have not yet. If I remember correctly, there has been 2 Electronic Shows in Vegas and the 2nd what was called the Dayton Ham Fest and still no release makes you think more on the lines that Icom is not wanting to compete in that market any longer. Just my thoughts.
Both models list on uniden site. They are advertising on facebook also.

It looks like Uniden.com is the only one who has the BCD160DN in stock. a lot of other webshops are giving “no stock - expect to ship in March” on their website’s
Any publicity is good publicity.
Once they start shipping, perhaps this thread should be closed and another thread opened in a non-tavern Uniden subforum for further discussion of the scanners as people begin to receive them?

or maybe Uniden wants to be the first to sell them to the customers from their website direct
