> 3 dayBought one for my daughter and one for my son and one for my own present. A great scanner at a reasonable price. Easy to use, but real professional ability to program by reading the detailed manual. We live in Lake County, CA where we need to have them to keep track of the wildfires in our area, as well as weather forecasts, police and sheriff, and ambulance calls.

> 3 dayThis is a good analog scanner if you know radio. If you do not know radio go with another unit. This will not get most government traffic(POLICE FIRE) today as they have gone to digital trunking which this radio does not do. The most traffic you will get on an analog scanner now is aircraft, HAM radio and marine. This scanner works fine for me.

> 3 dayIt is hard to figure out the search and scan. I read the manual several times and i am still confused. also cant figure out if it has a channel priority and it scans really slow.

> 3 dayCan`t figure how to determine the frequencies that I need, so it isn`t useable. Hopefully, I will figure it out!

> 3 dayHaving worked in the news media for over 30 years I can tell you that Uniden scanners are used in a number of newsrooms. Having said that I can also tell you that if you are into listening to police calls, there might be a problem since a number of police agencies are on different frequencies that some scanners can not pick up. As hard as Ive tried I can not pick up the local police on my scanner because there are no buttons to push to a set frequency. So instead I listen to the fire and EMS calls. Just as interesting as police calls in my opinion.

> 3 dayI use this scanner in my Jeep. It was easy enough to mount next to the CB. Antennas for fiberglass shells are hard to come by, so I got creative with a magnet mount, and a little hardware. Seems to receive signals satisfactory.
