Digital camera reviews of Uniden BC350C 800 MHz Mobile Scanner
Digital camera Review: Uniden 800 MHz Scanner - BC350C
Summary: 4 Stars
Nice little mobile scanner. I found this a great deal for an 800 MHz scanner. This one replaced my obsolete hand held scanner by Uniden that I had owned for over ten years and only went to 512 MHz. The only reason that I did not give this one five stars is the fact that the reception is not as clear and precise as my original scanner. I had to end up installing an outdoor antenna to boost reception and now it works fine.Digital camera Review: 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.Digital camera Review: Uniden BC350C Polcie Scanner..?...Review
Summary: 1 Stars
The majority of people out their who want to buy a scanner are those interested in what the police/Fire-Rescue are saying on their two way radio's. Police opperate on 800mhz and so an 800mhz scanner is necessary, so I bought one...
Well after buying the BC350C 800mhz scanner I read its owner manual and it states that the majority of police/Fire-Rescue etc. opperate an 800mhz Trunk system, and in order to properly tack the police etc. on 800mhz you need to buy a difrent scanner that is 800mhz Trunk capable...So basicly to fined this out it cost me over $100.00!!! Uniden BC350C 800 MHz Mobile Scanner
The package showed police/fire-rescue on it and the scanner itself has police and fire buttons indicating that it scanns 800mhz frequencies. The seller never indicated it was not trunk capable nor did the manufacturer Uniden untill later in their owners manual. Well it does scann 800mhz frequencies but it will not track the 800mhz Tunk system within 800mhz. "Trunk system basics: every time a officer transmits on a truck system he transmits and recieves on a diffrent frequency. in order to track what is being said a trunk system scanner is needed or you only hear a fragment of the conversation."
The scanner is easy to use but without trunk capabilities it might as well be a old scanner from the 80's. The scanner is very limited. I would not suggest buying one, don't wast your money. Buy a scanner that is trunk capable. Uniden Bearcat BCT8 BearTracker Warning System with 800 MHz TrunkTracker III

It works very well & was priced fairly. There are a few frequencies (mostly marine) that it doesn't pick up.Digital camera Review: dissapointed!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I'm a noobie at scanners, but this is now a paper weight on my desk. The description gives the impression that police/fire rescue can be monitored with this unit,when in reality,99% of all municipal frequencies are trunked,which makes this scanner useless to me.Deceptive advertising on Uniden's part.
