Uniden BCD325P2 Handheld TrunkTracker V Scanner. 25,000 Dynamically Allocated Channels. Close Call RF Capture Technology. Location-Based Scanning and S.A.M.E. Weather Alert. Compact Size.

WOW ... What a great DIGITAL scanner!!! Works like a champ in my big city. Allows me to listen in on all kinds of action with law enforcement, fire, ambulance, DPS, and more. A WORD OF CAUTION ... this scanner is NOT for the person who is not familiar with high-end scanner programming! It will drive you CRAZY very quickly. Personally, I use a computer with the downloadable Freescan software, in conjunction with RadioReference.com, to program mine, and it works great! After mastering the learning curve with these tools, I was able to program / transfer over 600 channels into the scanner, using the USB cable, in less than 2 minutes. This scanner has SO MANY FEATURES AND CAPABILITIES, that its a never ending ( and pleasant ) learning process. Rather expensive, but I really enjoy my Uniden BCD325P2! DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE YOU BUY!!!

This scanner works well and is easy enough to program with the provide cable.the only downside is that large trucked systems can be difficult

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.

Been using radio scanners for over 30 years now. Lifelong passion of mine. Licensed Amateur radio operator, computer science degree, etc. Some have said that this radio is impossible to figure out but that wasnt my experience. It was a little difficult but only took about a day for me to master. However, the P25 digital audio quality was pretty terrible so I ultimately returned this scanner. Sad because I really, really want a good P25 scanner. I wonder how much of the audio problem is due to the scanner and how much is due to the general design of P25. I really miss the days of trunked radio systems with convential analog audio. Btw I could probably work with this scanner if it was like $150 or $200 but I just couldnt bring myself to deal with the bad audio for $390 with tax. The audio often sounds like the adults in a Peanuts cartoon...

Feature wise, this scanner does what it says on the tin and has a good feature set. Audio is heard clearly. You better have plenty of batteries. I put in fresh Duracell AA batts and they were dead only after 6 hours!!! If not for the fact this scanner eats batteries so quickly, I would have rated it 5 stars. I knock off two stars because of this.

This scanner seems to do well with reception for higher-powered agencies. The only problem I have, and its a pretty big problem, is that the battery life is POOR to say the least! It sat on my desk for 2 days in the off position after being fully charged. Came back to work and it was dead. Had to go back on the charger. While on, Im lucky to get a shift out of it. Has to stay plugged in whenever possible. Perhaps the batteries are bad? Not too sure but the battery life is awful. Not a bad little scanner, though.

One of the most compact portable scanners on the market. Easy to program and easier to use. Great value for the money

This scanner is impossible to program without a lot of training. I expected with modern tech that I would just sync it to my computer and it would sync the necessary frequencies for my local trunked system. Not so. It says its programable via PC, but the software is not from Uniden and obsolete. I was trying to replace a nearly 30 year old Radio Shack trunk tracking scanner that was simple to program. I will be returning this. Update: Purchased the SDS 100. While it is twice the cost, it is well worth it.

Uniden makes good quality stuff, I can’t give less than 5 ⭐️‘s for something I’m sending back only because I can’t program it to do squat, but play fm radio tunes.. Graat* I bought a $300+ radio... Brush up on your nuclear algebraic physicist equations first if you plan on mentally torturing yourself by buying this. Maybe study time travel too perhaps, it might help. If you know how to operate this radio, tell the peeps at NASA I said hello.. *”GOVERNMENT” WARNING* *Wear an aluminum hat when in use*

after reading previous reviews I was a little afraid to even start programing my scanner however after signing up at radio reference and downloading the freescan softqare I was up and running in about 15 minutes.... Im learning something new everyday about my scanner... one thing I wish is that the battery life was longer but it shouldnt be too much of an issue since I will primarily using my scanner at home while Im crafting and such.... also wish the batteries would charge while it is plugged in.... with all said Im very happy with my purchase of the bcd325p2.
