Uniden BCD325P2 Handheld TrunkTracker V Scanner. 25,000 Dynamically Allocated Channels. Close Call RF Capture Technology. Location-Based Scanning and S.A.M.E. Weather Alert. Compact Size.

This scanner is great. Took me several try’s to get the “correct” trunking codes for my state but when I did it was easy to program. I used utube video to help and it did just that. Don’t pay hundreds of dollars for software. You can do it just research it. I did and it paid off big time. Do not sell your self short even you feel deficient in electronics. Research and save money, PLEASE.

Like

It was just what I expected, but I wished I had looked harder at whistler scanners. They dont have the alpha labeling like Uniden, but they are simpler to program, I think. I had the BC346XT before this, and the programming is the same.

Only thing I dislike is it doesnt charge the battery while in use. Otherwise its great for p25 systems and normal analog systems.

Quality

The scanner works great. I am very happy with this purchase. It is definitely not a easy program, but with a little patience can be figured out pretty easily. It also can be programmed with computer software which makes things so much easier. I love how detailed you can get with a programming honestly.

Bought this as a gift to replace an older one. Went digital because I wanted to make sure he was able to get all the channels. Said it was a little tough to set up but if you find the correct channel online, just takes a little time. Drains the batteries big time though.

This scanner is impossible to program without a lot of training. I expected with modern tech that I would just sync it to my computer and it would sync the necessary frequencies for my local trunked system. Not so. It says its programable via PC, but the software is not from Uniden and obsolete. I was trying to replace a nearly 30 year old Radio Shack trunk tracking scanner that was simple to program. I will be returning this. Update: Purchased the SDS 100. While it is twice the cost, it is well worth it.

Its the handheld version of the desktop BCD996P2, which I love. Now that both models have EDACS ProVoice and DMR software loaded, I can monitor over 95% of the public safety systems in my area. The 325P2 is a great size to fit in your hand and its volume is strong. I have two earlier models - BCD396T and BCD396XT - and the BCD325P2 is my new favorite.
