works but hard to program and after year tech support dont want to help

just got this a couple of days ago. love it !! its an aweome little scanner. with a subscription to radioreference.com and freescan application loaded I had my local area programmed in no time at all. our area has an old Motorola trunked system that will be replaced soon with a new P25 II system so dont know how itll work on the new system. I havent tried VHF yet, going to borrow the antennna on my BCT15x (best scanner ever !!) and give it a whirl. it likes AA batteries so if you dont have a charger and more batteries Id purchase some also. you know uniden comes so close to making great stuff but they need to take it up a notch....the USB connector is a mini USB....a mini? not micro like every thing esle has been for the last ten years !! and you cant charge it while listening, you have to turn off the radio to charge the batteries?!?! is it 1998?? and the manual they provide is for serious scan buffs, I am not a scan nerd so the manual gave me a headache ! great portable scanner that Id recommed.

Bought this as a gift to replace an older one. Went digital because I wanted to make sure he was able to get all the channels. Said it was a little tough to set up but if you find the correct channel online, just takes a little time. Drains the batteries big time though.

Overall a great handheld. Durable and lasts. Drains batteries; invest in rechargeables. Only uses 2 AA verses the older models that were heavier with 4. I purchased software to easily upload and manage frequencies. Reception is moderate even with a higher gain antenna. Sound quality is ok.

Combined this with ProScan programming software (worked the best $50) and a Radio Reference subscription (online frequency database that works with ProScan $15/6 months) to program the device. Software also allows you to create multiple backups and/or configurations. Only negative I see is the battery recharging is a little weird. Charges on a timer that is settable and doesnt turn off when battery is charged. Seems to run off battery when plugged into USB port and does not recharge until turned off. If you remove batteries, it runs off USB power. Im a little new to the device...this part seems to have not been thought through.

Works great for the Indiana SAFE-T Motorola system. I can get the site within this county perfectly and the surrounding counties come in pretty well too. I didnt realize Indiana was so restrictive with their scanner laws, though. Ive actually now got my ham license so that I can legally carry the scanner. Not a big deal, but know your local laws before you buy. Update: I now live in Arizona and this scanner is still a workhorse. I use it to monitor DPS analog, Maricopa County municipalities on RWC and MCSO on the county system. This radio is still an awesome value. I also use the GPS functions. Thats very helpful, just takes some extra time when programming.

This is hard to program unless you are very tech savvy, which is why I gave it 3 stars for ease of use, but after we got this professionally uploaded with surrounding channels my husband hasnt put it down. The sound quality is clear at his workplace but a little broken up at the house with certain channels, sort of like tv channels. Overall, it keeps you informed of surrounding events.

Scanner works well, can be a bit of a challenge to program, but on the whole, easy to operate.

Works perfectly. Controls are what they are, and they are ok, but not great. Unless you have a lot of spare time and patience, you are going to need to also buy software to program this, and likely a subscription to a scanner frequency database.
