Uniden BC365CRS 500 Channel Scanner and Alarm Clock with Snooze, Sleep, and FM Radio with Weather Alert, Search Bands Commonly used for Police, Fire/EMS, Aircraft, Radio, and Marine Transmissions

This scanner is great for the price..was really easy to program.

If you need a weather radio or want to listen to radio, this does a fine job. As a scanner, it is too difficult to program and the instructions are of little to no help. Bought the scanner for my Mother, she could program her older one. This one resisted everyone who tried to program Junk…. Look elsewhere

None

The scanner is easy to set up and works very well. Uniden is a good brand. Before this one I had a 16 channel that I got in 1992 and it still works flawlessly. I just upgraded because I wanted something a little newer because my mom wanted the older one

The Bearcat BC365CRS is a very nice radio. Listening to Military/Commercial Aviation daily via Davis Monthan AFB from my apartment. Tucson International is just beyond that. While I cant really use an external antenna at the apartment, the standard telescoping antenna supplied gives me a very sufficient signal strength for virtually all my listening. Amateur radio on 2 Meters and on 440 is clear. General Pima County services are quite clear. While the main Tucson Police Department is a trunked 800 MHz system and NOT covered by this radio, the remainder of city services and MedEvac helicopter are interesting to listen to. FM reception is quite adequate. Sound is exceptional considering the size of the speaker. Based on what I hear coming in on the NOAA Weather frequencies - the Mt Lemmon Transmitter is alright but not great quality. This isnt a scanning receiver issue. Their WX transmitter is only marginal. Alarm function is good. Either turn on the radio or tone with enough tone kick to wake anyone up. Compared to a regular Alarm Clock the alarm settings arent as easy to use as a dedicated digital clock though. Search modes by Service and programming those frequencies into memory is pretty straightforward . Five Stars.

Excellent scanner. Only thing I had trouble with was most codes are more than 6 digits, as for this scanner only allows 6 digits. But after researching, you don’t have to enter all numbers when programming codes. Just enter what you can. Example: Code is 627.55107 then for this scanner you’ll just enter 627.551 and still works!

This is a great desktop scanner at a good price. Quite easy to program and use. I own other police scanners and this one has the best sound quality.

This was exactly what we wanted. Being a firemans wife, I like to be able to hear the calls he goes on to know hes safe, get an idea of how things are going to plan for things like dinner or other activities in case hes going to be delayed, and its somewhat entertaining to hear some of the crazy stuff you hear with police communications.

I could do without the clock functions. I bought this used because the price is steep. I use it often and it functions well!

Programming this scanner was so easy!! Absolutely would purchase again!
