Uniden Bearcat SR30C, 500-Channel Compact Handheld Scanner, Close Call RF Capture, Turbo Search, PC programable, NASCAR, Racing, Aviation, Marine, Railroad, and Non-Digital Police, Fire, Public Safety

I bought this scanner for a NASCAR race to hear the drivers. It worked great and Im looking forward to using it again. It was super easy to program thanks to the PC software that comes with it.

The unit was delivered in all lockout mode and despite my attempts to change the function I am unable to at all. when I contacted customer support on two separate occasions I never received a response and I am still stuck with a paperweight piece of crap. I even watched YouTube video but mine won’t work as the demo does. Terrible

This scanner was easy to setup and program and works really well

I purchased the scanner for my husband and hes having some difficulty only in the programming and use. But after he gets the operation part completely set up and tunes in to his channels he will love it.

Brought this thinking that I could start doing a hobby I’ve been interested in for a while. I couldn’t figure out even after doing YouTube searches on it to get it out of all lock mode. Also couldn’t figure out how to get my local police feeds. Returned it a week later. After I sent customer support a message which they only say they respond via email, though they do have an 800 number. Call the 800 number and all it says is to email them. Not worth the money.

Returned it. I wont work everywhere. Make sure it will work in your area before buying.

Product is just what I was looking for at a very good price

Pros: - Scans Quickly Cons: - Stock antenna isnt great... I dont suppose its meant to be. - No ability to name banks or channels even via computer (This is the worst part) - Should have used USB-Micro or Type-C Charging... this uses USB-Mini, a terrible antiquated port - Backlight times out quickly - Backlight cant be set to light on receive so you have to fumble in time to see a frequency at night - Function Key is Toggle, not momentary so you have to check the screen to see if its engaged For all of its cons its still a serviceable scanner for the price but these are issues that could have been (could be?) addressed at little to no cost.

Delivery was great

Just what I needed for monitoring emergency activity! The battery-life on the rechargeable unit is long-lasting. Nice to take-out for a few days without having to charge.
