Feature Highlights

General

Close Call™ RF Capture Technology - You can set the scanner so it detects and provides information about nearby radio transmissions. See “Using the Close Call Feature” on Page 100 for more information.

Dynamically Allocated Channel Memory - Your scanner’s memory is organized so that it more closely matches how radio systems actually work, making it easier to program and use your scanner and determine how much memory you have used and how much you have left.

Pre-Programmed Systems - Your UBCD396T may come pre-programmed with local systems (for Australian and NZ Emergency Services for example) as a complementary start.

100 Quick Keys – You can set the scanner so you can quickly select systems and groups by using the keypad. This makes it easy to listen to or quickly lock out those systems or groups you don’t want to scan.

9 Service Searches - frequencies are preset in separate Police, Marine, Railroad, Air, CB Radio, UHF CB Radio, Racing, TV Broadcast, and FM Broadcast searches, to make it easy to search and scan for specific transmissions.

Lockout – You can lock out any system, group, frequency, or channel while scanning. If you lock out a system or group, any channels belonging to that system or group are also locked out.

You can lock out up to 200 frequencies. The scanner skips locked-out frequencies while using the Close Call feature or while searching.

CTCSS and DCS Squelch Modes – prevent interference from stations not using the mode you select.
