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.

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.

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*

If you have no experience programming a trunk radio system, this scanner can take some time to set up. Once up and running it proved to be a good sounding unit with great signal sensitivity. I intend to upgrade the antenna for something more robust, but I am otherwise satisfied. I used ARC XT Programming software (paid version) and access to a free Radio Reference Account during the scanner set up.

Uniden used to be a good name in radios. Based on this and the previous scanner I got, there is no quality in the products. Had another scanner sitting next to this and it would not pick up transmissions the other scanner would get loud and clear. What was worse is when I went to return it, they did not offer the UPS pickup service like all my other returns have. Would not recommend purchase of *ANY* Uniden products.

I bought this scanner due to my local sheriff converted over to P25 Phase 2 (simulcast as well). I hadnt realized that it was going to need simulcast functionality when I bought it, and after I read some reviews saying the simulcast reception was not very good, I was nervous. I received the scanner, programmed the system and tested. Even on firmware v1.06.00, it works ok, after I update firmware to v1.08.01, it should work even better, I recommend this scanner, very good device. **Update: scanner leaves room for improvement, but it does decode digital transmissions ok. Will not handle simulcast systems though, no matter how I configured it. Excellent seller, extremely helpful!

This is an awesome scanner! It has everything you need to listen to police and fire dept. Highly recommend!

Radio is good. there is a learning curve but isnt bad for those who are familiar with electronic radios. Found everything i needed to program this via youtube, radioreference, and the owners manual. Only complaint is that the software for firmware updates is windows only, No Mac software available. Uniden ships the unit with 2015 firmware, which needs to be updated with a windows pc. :-/

After a 32 year career in LE and retired for 6, my oldest son is on the job now as well with my agency. So, I finally jumped on this. It takes a bit of patience to program it as my agency is large with hundreds of trunked channels. However, through the benefit of friends who have this model, it worked out. The instruction manual is hard to read, with especially small print as well. I added a beefier antenna and when at home, use desktop speakers to enhance the sound quality. For the money it is an excellent purchase and does what it should.

I payed full price for this scanner which is listed as new but it is clearly not new and on top of that it says batteries included both in description and in the manual, but there are no batteries and the box is smashed a little and there are scratches on the screen. The manuals are dirty like someone has handled them a lot. Also the twist tie that is on the USB cable looks like it came off a bread wrapper it is not what they use in packaging these scanners. I will see if it works after writing this review. The Scratches are hard to see when I took pictures but the slightly damaged box and bread wrapper twist tie are easily seen. There was no plastic protective bag on the scanner and no protective film to peal off of the screen.

Not the easiest to program. Manual is very confusing.
