Review on πŸ“» Uniden Bearcat SR30C: Turbo Search, Close Call RF Capture, 500-Channel Compact Handheld Scanner for NASCAR, Aviation, Marine, Railroad, and Public Safety by Jesse Azuse

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Unfriendly to use - radio scanner

I had an old Radio Shack that I used for years but my grandson loves airplanes so I decided to give it to him and replace it. There aren't many options, but I've heard of Uniden, so I've decided this is the way to go. It wasn't easy to store frequencies in my old Radshack device. I had to look at the manual every time. But at least I could understand the user manual and only had to switch it on after setting it up. The Uniden division is still a nightmare. I didn't take it out to see if I actually saved the frequencies and I don't see any way of finding out what's saved, if anything. I'm not sure how to get it to scan the frequencies I have saved. I keep locking my screen for unknown reasons. I had to connect it to my computer but it doesn't work. Maybe I'll be happy if I ever find out, but not really now. I'm not sure if the scanner is that complicated or the documentation is that bad. Maybe a bit of both.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Nothing
