Your Bearcat UBC3500XLT scanning receiver is a state-of- the-art scanner radio with extended frequency. You can store frequencies such as police, fire/emergency, marine, air, amateur, and other communications into the scanner. You can carry it with you wherever you go. You can use the scanner’s scroll control to quickly select channels and frequencies, and you can automatically program channels in a system using the AutoStore feature. Use your scanner to monitor:

•Police and fire departments (including rescue and paramedics)

•Business/Industrial radio and utilities

•Marine and amateur (ham radio) bands

•Air band

•Railroad

The chart below identifies the scanner band numbers, the frequency range, the modulation mode and the default step size settings.
