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

Been 6 months now since giving this out (2) Christmas gifts. My sons both commented how much they enjoy listening to scanner at night. Got online and printed off police/fire codes so when they say, 12-4 all is good or code 3 lights and sirens. They love the Uniden Scanners when power goes out, scanner also has battery back up so you dont lose the frequency numbers

Gets enough local stuff to make anyone happy. Really enjoy my new bearcat.. Not digital but FINE for me. I am listening to channels up to 40 miles away.

Love police scanners my old one was outdated, not sure how to program it to listen to police, fire departments or anything, it’s confusing on how to get it programmed

Not very sensitive to frequencies like my other scanners. Hard to figure out. They just threw it in a bag to ship it, and the box was all crushed. Was going to buy them for the whole family, but was too disappointed.

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.

Scanner was so easy to program. Directions were so easy to understand. Scanner works great. Very happy with.

Arrived on time. Actually purchased this for a frirend whos old scanner finally quit working. They are very happy with it! This was for an older couple so I needed to program it like my own for them. Best price I found on line, and no stores in our area carry this type scanner anymore, they are all digital only. Would recomend and buy again.

My wife wanted a scanner and she saw this one online and wanted to purchase it. I thought for the price why not.... I think its a good scanner for its price point. She likes to keep in the know by listening to it and I think it keeps her entertained when shes home alone. I think its certainly worth what we paid for it.

This item was purchased for my house to make sure everyone was doing ok in my house

Pros: Nice clean design. Relatively easy to program. Turn banks on and off at will. A full 500 channels with no pre-programmed banks to waste your time. Good Sensitivity. Antenna always stays upright. Clock radio and weather alert feature a small bonus. Cons: Only goes to 512 MHz - missing the 800 MHz band. Speaker is small and sound is somewhat tinny.
