Uniden BC365CRS 500 Channel Scanner and Alarm Clock with Snooze, Sleep, and FM Radio with Weather Alert, Search Bands Commonly used for Police, Fire/EMS, Aircraft, Radio, and Marine Transmissions

A great update to replace my old realistic Scanners Easy to program many many features I especially like the battery back up when the power goes out during storms I still receive my emergency services calls for hours and hours In fact, I purchased two additional scanners after I tried the first one I now have a total of three

Good buy

OVER ALL IT IS A GOOD SCANNER,

Does everything I need it do and is simple to use. Has the police, fire, ems etc channel capability, plus the 24/7 National Weather Service channel, and the FM radio. The NWS channel is on there automatically, you have to store which emergency channels you want and which fm channels you want. You also have the option to have it alert you when there’s a weather warning in your area.

Delivered today on time and operational within 30 minutes. No frills or add on to this unit like a extended antenna or power source. Open box, read instructions and you are listening ! I have 50+ frequency running after I entered my wanted ones from my list...If you follow instructions every time you cant go wrong. As a firefighter I like to know whats going on in my region... the clear speaker is good, a bit tinny not deep based but is clear to understand. You can enter frequencys to listen to tac units, police, fire. The supplied antenna is good for ranges < 15 miles...otherwise need outside one. The weather/FM radio features are great, have them logged in sec. BUY this scanner I recommend it.

I like it is easy to programe

Pros: Nice clean design. Relatively easy to program. Turn banks on and off at will. A full 500 channels with no pre-programmed banks to waste your time. Good Sensitivity. Antenna always stays upright. Clock radio and weather alert feature a small bonus. Cons: Only goes to 512 MHz - missing the 800 MHz band. Speaker is small and sound is somewhat tinny.

Extremely noisy. It is frustrating as heck!

This scanner is great for the price..was really easy to program.

This particular Uniden scanner unit is a winner. Very easy to program with strong dynamic sound. Once set up for local fire and police it will run for years. A great scanner for beginners.
