BCD160DN/BCD260DN: My Thoughts of the BCD160DN After a Month

The high end starter jump pack that uses boost circuits does not surprise me about the noise.

The BCD160DN has close call? I read somewhere that it have a Close call RF that is not the usual close call from other uniden scanners, I have no idea what it means, if is better or not.

And it receives 225.0000 - 379.9750 AM ?

No.

And it receives 225.0000 - 379.9750 AM ?

Seems so, I didn't look at the literature but mine just now let me program in 225-375 (I tried in 25 MHz increments).

I received mine BCD160DN and it receives DMR very well, but I thought it showed the slot and CC on the screen, but no, it is not possible to show that?

Slot no it does not care about them.
My 160 and 260 both show CC

Can the 160DN be powered off the wall wart? I read the manual and could not find a reference to powering radio off wall wart.

Sure it can
