Easier to Read BCD396T/UBCD396T Digital Scanner Manual
For those of you who are new to trunking , dynamic memory , or haven't had a scanner in the last 10 years it is a good idea to read the respective sections on those topics.
You really have to know how trunking works in order to program a trunking system. It won't do you any good to try to program a trunking system unless you know what the
radio needs and is going to do with the data (control channel, IDs, LCN order, etc).
I will assume you know how to obtain the basic information from the original manual such as following safety procedures, putting the batteries in, connecting the antenna,
finding specs, etc. and concentrate on the main functions of the scanner.
I hereby absolve myself from anything that happens to anyone or the scanner as a result of the information you will be reading. You are welcome to copy and/or print these
pages and use them in the scanning hobby as long as don't change them or charge anyone money for them. I have tried the best I can to make sure everything is accurate
here but if I missed a step or you see something that's obviously wrong, please
email me.
Check back often as this document will be updated and revised from time to time.
Main Features
Contents
Multi-System Trunking
- follows conversations on analog Motorola, Motorola Astro-APCO 25, W/N/SCAT EDACS, and LTR trunked radio systems in VHF/UHF, 700
MHz, 800 MHz, and 900 MHz bands. The scanner can scan both conventional and trunked systems at the same time.
EDACS ESK Support
- provides the ability to monitor analog talkgroups on those systems. (Requires firmware 3.00 or newer).
Scan with Search Operation
- lets you include selected service/custom search ranges during scan operation.
Close Call RF Capture Technology
- lets you set the scanner so it detects and provides information about nearby radio transmissions. Close Call 'Do-not-Disturb'
checks for Close Call activity in between channel reception so active channels are not interrupted.
Dynamically Allocated Channel Memory
- organized into 'Systems', 'Groups' (within systems), and channels (within groups). Up to 400 systems, 20 groups per
system, and 6,000 channels (200 max IDs per system).
Signal Strength Meter
- shows the signal strength for the more powerful transmissions.
Battery Meter
- shows the battery strength.
Preprogrammed Systems
- your scanner is preprogrammed with systems with the 25 most populated counties in the US (and local systems for Australia and NZ for
the UBCD396T).
100 Quick Keys
- you can assign the number keys to systems or groups to scan them. This makes it easy to listen to or quickly turn off those systems or groups you
don't want to scan.
9-12 Service Searches ( Both , BCD396T only , UBCD396T only )
- frequencies are preset in separate marine, railroad, air, CB radio , UHF CB, FM broadcast ,
TV broadcast , public safety, police , FRS/GMRS, news, amateur radio, and special (itinerant) searches to make it easy to find specific transmissions.
10 Custom Searches
- lets you program up to 10 custom search ranges.
Quick Search
- lets you search from the currently-tuned frequency if you are searching a conventional system.
Analog and Digital Audio AGC
- helps automatically balance the volume level between different radio systems.
Fire Tone-Out Standby
- lets you set the scanner to alert you if a two-tone sequential page is transmitted. You can set up to 10 settings (transmit frequency, tone
frequencies) then select one for standby monitoring.
