Amazon.com Product Description: Get in on all the action with the Uniden BC350C, a powerful radio scanning and searching unit. In search mode, The BC350C can search 13 bands to find active frequencies. This differs from scanning in that the unit searches for frequencies that have not been programmed into the scanner's channels. The scanner automatically chooses between two speeds (Search and Turbo Search) while searching. During search mode the scanner will search 100 frequencies per second, while in Turbo Search Mode the scanner can achieve up to 300 frequencies per second in bands that have 5 kHz steps.
In scanning mode, The BC350C scans programmed channels at the rate of up to 100 channels per second until it locates an active frequency. When scanning stops on an active frequency, it remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanner stays on the channel for 2 more seconds, waiting for another transmission. If no response is detected, the scanning cycle resumes until another transmission is received.
The BC350C monitors these communication types:
Police and fire departments (including rescue and paramedics)
NOAA weather broadcasts (10 pre-programmed channels, 2 are Canadian Marine Weather Channels)
Citizens Band (CB)
Business/industrial radio
Motion picture and press relay
Utility
Land transportation frequencies, such as trucking firms, buses, taxis, tow trucks, and railroads
Marine and amateur (ham radio) bands
Air band
Many more in the 25-54 MHz, 108-174 MHz, 406-512, and 806-956 MHz ranges, excluding the cellular telephone band
The BC350C ships with a DC power connector and a cigarette lighter adapter, making it ready for permanent or temporary vehicle use.

first time scanner user this is my first scanner. from what i have learned it seems everyone starts out with this model or similar. its simple to use, it does not need to be technical unless you want to make it. i do recommend using the plastic copper core antenna to put on a window, as it got me a distance of 40 miles, the straight metal antenna was just good for local stuff. this is a product i could easily recommend to anyone that wants to hear new things and listen to the weather as it happens, thank you,,
Good scanner, enjoyable to use. I've got several of these BC350C scanners and enjoy them very much. Yes, they are klutsy when programming frequencies into the "Private" bank, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes a breeze. Also there are no "Priority" channels, so you could miss some action on your favorite channel(s). That said, I'm very pleased with the BC350C scanners.
Uniden BC350C Mobile Scanner This was purchased as a Christmas gift for my husband. He has thoroughly enjoyed listening to it. He especially likes the aircraft band.
Scanner review We received this scanner earlier than expected. It arrived in complete working order. This is the easiest to set up and use of all I have checked out.
A scanner with good operation and size for the price A good scanner with very good audio sound. The BC350C is a very good size for a table or desk. It has limit search and every police,fire,air,cb band with plenty of freqency coverage. The Price is also very good. the scanner doesn't have a keyboard to type in a frequency but, which is ok with me. I like to scan,find, and store freguencies. If you want a keyboard and trunking another scanner would be a better choice for you, but if you are a beginner , or just want a basic scanner for fun or basic needs for a decent price this is a very good choice.
