Review on 📻 Uniden BEARCAT 880 CB Radio: 40 Channels, Large Easy-to-Read 7-Color LCD Display, and More! by Tony Wylie

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An almost perfect compromise between scanner and CB. I recommend!

This device is not a perfect scanner as other reviewers have noted, compared to some of Uniden's other flagship scanners this device is limited. This unit is the perfect answer to my problem: how to nicely install and use scanner, CB and 2m/70cm radio in my Ram 2500. I could install any two, but not three, without opening up the dash and installing devices from the top down the front window. I didn't want to do it! In use, the scanner can be operated quite comfortably while driving; You don't have time or don't need to know the exact agency and channel type. It just works and works well. CB is a full-featured CB that only lacks the CB channel scan function. to be almost perfect (oh wait, I wish it had SSB too!) So: If you want the perfect scanner, buy the Uniden BCD536HP (that's the scanner I replaced in my truck) - with all the features all information about what you are listening to and other features to discover and follow new channels. If you want the perfect CB, buy the Uniden Bearcat 980 SSB CB (the CB I replaced) with weather, scan and SSB for more range. CB in your car, and you're ready to trade some scanner complexity/functionality and some CB features for a relatively bulletproof, easy-to-use kit. Take it! and other features for discovering and monitoring new channels. If you want the perfect CB, buy a Uniden Bearcat 980 SSB CB (the CB I replaced) with weather, scan and SSB for longer range.
