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

I needed a scanner that I could use both at home and in my tiny cabin (where my only power source is a 12 volt solar panel) and this product was perfect for the application. . Of course it only accepts an analog signal, but for my region (Central Missouri) that's enough to keep me up to date. It receives all my local police, fire and rescue services, both Dispatch and Mobile, flawlessly. I like the ability to switch to other bands accepted by this scanner such as B. Air and sea. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the manual is hard to understand but you can watch some videos on Youtube, to get an idea and after that it's pretty easy. Helpful tips. If you program your local frequencies into private mode you will get much better performance by disabling all options except private mode and if you wish to listen to any of the other bands simply select the specific band of your choice and disable it . Private band because if you try to scan too many bands at once you will miss a lot because there is a lot on the air and you can only hear one frequency at a time. Finally, a good tip for programming locals in private mode is to go to broadcastify.com and select the range you want to hear. Broadcastify lets you listen to shows near you. Next, start looking for scanner frequencies for your area. by programming them into the scanner. If there are no trunk frequencies, you should hear the scanner talking when the broadcast is talking.
