Review on Uniden BC355N 800 MHz 300-Channel Base/Mobile Scanner, Enhanced SEO by Devin Jirsa

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Update on previous review: Highly recommend this item now!

When I first received this item I gave it a bad rating (due to static and transmission interruptions). I'm ok with this article now, the problem was the recommended external speaker (the review recommended the speaker and sold it as a bundle when I bought the scanner). Once I removed the speaker (because I was returning/replacing the scanner) the transmission was PERFECTLY clear and uninterrupted. And the built-in speaker for the scanner was fine. An external speaker was not required. Just so you know, when an external speaker is connected, it bypasses the internal speaker entirely. When I bought and read the review, it was suggested that the scanner needs an external speaker. IS NOT IT! The scanner works great without an external speaker and I am now very happy with this scanner. Sometimes reading reviews hurts, I hope this one helps. It's a really good scanner for what I need and I'm very happy with it after removing the external speaker.

Pros
  • The BC355N features "Close Call RF Capture Technology", which immediately adjusts to signals from nearby transmitters. This preprogrammed search makes it easy to find active frequencies and helps you stay up to date with local events and emergencies in your area. 100 channels/sec. Scanning Speed (Max)
Cons
  • Long Delivery Time
