Digital camera reviews of Uniden BC92XLT Bearcat Handheld Scanner
Digital camera Review: Solid unit, but not for me
Summary: 3 Stars
People say our society has becomed "dumbed down": you know, Samuel L. Clemens' name has been stricken from library files because too few people know he is "Mark Twain"; rather than buy components, most of us are advised to buy "home theater" equipment even if we only want the audio; even cell phones are becoming rolling packs of trivia and "personalized" ring tones.
Fear not, for one aspect of American life has remained as technically frustrating, jargon-laden and obscurantist as any pedant could want: scanners. Specifically this one. Oh, it works where it is supposed to work but it is darn difficult to program.
And worst of all for me, I simply have not been able to get it to accept signals in the 160-161 Mhz frequencies to follow my railroading hobby. As a transpotter, I must have those frequencies because it is only in those frequencies that the federal government and the Association of American Railroads permit communication. Betty Bearcat, why are you so hard to deal with?
Perhaps my cousin would like it? He goes to NASCAR races down in North Carolina.
