• Reviews around unit (3.80 of 5)

    Uniden Bearcat BC125AT Handheld Scanner, 500 Alpha-Tagged channels, Public Safety, Police, Fire, Emergency, Marine, Military Aircraft, and Auto Racing Scanner,  Lightweight Portable Design

    • Other that that, the unit is very sensitive and works well for my needs.
    • Even though this scanner can only do conventional radio traffic (not digital), for the money it is a very solid unit with a lot to like and only a few drawbacks for the price
    • Unknown if this unit was defective when arrived or it was just hard to program from step one.
    • I wouldn't recommend this to any one who might be looking for an inexpensive unit
    • This is a durable unit with a clear readable screen and wait for it...........fairly darn easy to use.
    • However, if you intend to use it with headphones or earphones, forget it - the unit produces an irritating click whenever the internal audio amplifier turns on or off (i.e. at the start and end of each received radio transmission) and it gets annoying very quickly
    • Without special programming this unit is hard to use, I was hoping my wife could turn it on and listen to local Fire, Police and Emergency, that is not the case
    • Great handheld unit!
    • This is a powerful unit and can do a lot of things
    • I will upgrade to a better unit for Police and Fire / Emergency which are principal reasons I purchased unit.
    • but I have no regrets and would recommend this unit to anyone using an older, less versatile scanner but with the above negatives as a caveat.
    • This unit is impossible to program
    • The unit works just fine but since her vision isnt the best I should have bought a base unit with a larger screen on it but cant ding uniden for that.
    • This has been a very positive first experience with a very nice unit, I would recommend to anyone interested in dabbling.
    • Good unit
    • Will highly recommend this unit.
    • This unit is fine for monitoring what I am looking to use it for (Analog Civil/Military Air Traffic), but I would not buy it for monitoring LEO/Police frequencies, as most are using Digital in the 800-900 mhz range
    • It can't keep up with a good desktop unit, but I did not expect it to do so.
    • So good unit ust poor battery consumption.
    • unit was defective
    • So the gist is this.......this unit works as intended for my use and I would highly recommend it if you need a portable economical system.
    • Great unit at a great price
    • I like this unit
    • Excellent rechargeable handheld unit
    • It greatly outperforms the old desktop unit it replaced.500 channels is probably more than you need, but the excellent display and computer software make it easy to manage
    • seems to be a really nice unit, it was purchased as a gift.
    • I know that this unit is PC compatible, however I use a Mac which it doesn't sync to
    • great portable unit.
    • Great unit!
    • I'm going to chalk this up to a totally defective unit, but I'm not going through all that again to give it another try
    • Other than that, it is a really nice little unit that for $125.00, is well worth the money
    • Would NOT recommend this unit.
    • They said unit is worthless.
    • The BC125AT Scanner is by far an outstanding unit and a steal for the price
    • This unit is very useful and the portability of this makes it even better
    • The unit is easy to jump between channels.
    • The unit is difficult to figure out, software is hard to find to program with PC and there is an added cost if you want it programmed
    • When I travel on the road, this unit will become even more useful with the close call feature.
    • This is a nice unit and easy to program on the fly or using the USB cable and software.
    • I like this unit.
    • Good little unit
    • It's a good unit for the money but not a great scanner to program.
    • The unit itself is easy to program once the kinks are worked out, which was nearly three hours.
    • Good Uniden unit.
    • A 4 is a decent, honest review on this scanner considering the positives and negatives I found
    • its not bad i like pretty good except for ,the batterylife the batteries that came with it are
    • n’t know if I would trust it to charge the batteries correctly as a result.
