Hi first great videos question how do you no if a frequency is trunked or digital or what have you I have had a scanner for 45 years but now I bought a BCT15X and I’m trying to program it and need help and all the knowledge as possible

My first scanner was Uniden Bearcat BC365CRS. I have a Radio shack handheld pro 89.

On your Scanner School playlist here on KZbin, can you reverse the order that the videos are in so that they're in chronological order instead of backwards order? Thanks.

I listen to a handheld scanner and a Software Defined Radio

[@estillcountywx4552]

From one of my postings only Applicable to the USA as all government, utilities, rail, emergeny servics use encrypted tetra (similar to project 25 you guys have) in the UK, most other users use DRM, so if you have a non DRM scanner all you hear is air band, prm446, marine band if you live near the coast, cb, (which is dead in the UK) and hams. most shops and most drive thoroughs also use the 2.4 Hz ism band, useing very low power.

[@Robert-jb3vm]

Yea I live in Dayton Tennessee Ray county is ZIP Code 37321 and I was wondering if you could help me decide which scanner would be right for me

I like the idea of walking my dog, and listening to a scanner.. As I dig deeper, all the meat and gravy I seek is encrypted in my local area.. I dont want a annolog scanner, or so I think... ??? As I explore Uniden products ( digital trunking ) I'm learning they need to be PC programmed to keep the firm ware up to date.. I'm kinda hesitant, so the old school anolog used EBay scanner starts to sound like a cheaper investment. If I stay with new technology and go SDR ( also a computer program on my spare cell phone ) How well SDR work as a scanner, portable antenna duct taped to the back of my cell phone ? Are old annolog scanners a point, click and go, or do they also require with computer programing? Thanks, stay Awsome.

Sorry dude, it is nice that you plan to teach people how to scan. You might know a lot about "Scanning'" but it takes some other talents to pass the knowledge on to others. I lasted 8 minutes into your video. I expected to "learn something" But hearing you, during 50% of the video, talk about your projects and what you will eventually talk about - was enough.

So true in U.K scanners totally pointless. Don't waste your money.

[@harrybaulz666]

Scanners? What the heck you listen to? Tow trucks and idiots?

[@cammacgregor9354]

A waste of time
