New Question about uniden BC-250 digital card

[ncat243]

Hi, I have the opportunity to get the uniden 250 for only $150. Is this a good deal? It will need the digital card. They went all digital around here in ohio. But I dont know where to find this digital card? Any ideas? Or how much it will even cost? Any help would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks Missy

Hi ncat243 welcome to RadioReference

I wouldn't bite on that deal because of the missing BCi 25D card.
Have a look at the price of a remanufactured one: Uniden BCI25D Remanufactured Digital Accessory Card enables APCO P-25 Systems monitoring (BC-I25D BC I25D BCI-25D BCI 25D BC125D BC-125D BC 125D BC1-25D BC1 25D BCI25 BC125)

Save a bit more money and look for a used BCD 296 or BCD 396 , their digital devices are built in.

Thanks! What about radio Shacks?

Thanks so much! Do you think thats the best for the area just north of cincinnati, ohio? I was also thinking of the pro106. But I just dont have $500 at this time. Ive been trying to get one off ebay but $250 is all I have right now and they are going for over $300. Its driving me crazy not being able to listen anymore. Thanks alot for your help. Missy
