Feature Highlights

Trunk Tracking – Follow VHF High Band UHF 800/900MHz trunked public safety and public service systems just as if conventional two-way communications were used.

Digital Capable – With the APCO 25 Digital card (BCi25D) installed, you can monitor supported project 25 systems.

Multi-Track– Track more than one trunking system at a time. Scan conventional and trunked systems at the same time.

1000 Channels – Program one frequency into each channel. You must have at least one channel programmed to use the Scan mode.

27 Bands – Includes 27 bands, with aircraft and 800 MHz.

10 Banks – 10 banks with 100 channels each are useful for storing similar frequencies to maintain faster scanning cycles or for storing all the frequencies of a trunked system.

25 MHz-1300 MHz – Indicates the range of frequencies that can be searched within the bands of your scanner.

Note: The frequency coverage is not continuous and excludes the cellular band, 512-806MHz.

10 Priority Channels – You can assign one priority channel in each bank. Assigning a priority channel allows you to keep track of activity on your most important channel(s) while monitoring other channels for transmissions. You can also assign trunking priority talkgroups.

Priority Plus Scan – Allows you to scan only priority channels.

Preprogrammed Service – Allows you to toggle through preprogrammed public safety, news media, TV broadcast audio, Ham, CB, FRS, special low power, railroad, aircraft, marine, racing, and weather frequencies.

Unique Data Skip – Allows your scanner to skip unwanted data transmissions and reduces birdies.

Memory Backup – If power is disconnected, the frequencies programmed in your scanner are retained in memory.

Direct Channel Access – Go directly to any channel without entering the Menu mode.

Attenuator – Reduces the signal strength on a per frequency basis.

PC Programmable – Allows you to easily program all frequencies and Trunking Talk Groups into your BC785D through Uniden E-Scanner software running on your PC.

Turbo Search – Increases the search speed to 300 steps per second. This applies only to transmission bands with 5 kHz steps.

Text Tags – You can customize your scanner by storing text tags (up to 16 characters).

Auto Store – The scanner automatically stores found active frequencies into an assigned bank.

CTCSS/DCS – The scanner can receive and search for subaudible tones.

NWR-SAME Alert – The scanner is compatible with warning siren and message transmissions.

FIPS Code – Six digit FIPS Code (emergency and geographic area code) programmable.
