5.0 out of 5 stars Very efficient scanner
I bought this item after my previous scanner died on me, and I did quite a bit of research before deciding on this one. It is a great scanner and has many sophisticated features which are often only found on desktop scanners. The sound quality is excellent, as are its speed of scanning and its sensitivity - even with its own antenna. I had to override the built in frequencies in banks 1 to 3 in order to enter my own. (On reflection I should have used banks 7 to 9 for mine, but banks 1 - 3 contain pre-programmed frequencies i wouldn't normally use and, if I ever want to scan these ranges, there are other ways of doing it). One gripe: It took me an age to enter and save my own first three frequencies - the manual is correct, but over-helpful and a little confusing. I wrote down my own shortened version and after following that, entering the frequencies and the name I allocated, was easy. A feature I have yet to try is the Close Call feature - which looks interesting! One thing I am not sure about with my own scanner is the charging facility; I used it for charging the batteries for the first time - the screen displayed "Charging". When the batteries are charged, it should read "Charging Complete", and it has never yet done that, even after several hours. I fully charged the batteries by using a separate charger, re-inserted them, but still the screen read "Charging" (It may be that the supplied charger is only 1 amp, much lower than other USB chargers I use). Apart from these minor issues, I can recommend this unit
5.0 out of 5 stars Uniden UBC 125XLT
Comparing it against my Grecom PSR295 scanner, the 125XLT is a much better size, the Grecom is like a brick and not that easy to carry around. The Bearcat is quite dinky and will go in a large pocket. The display is large compared with the Grecom and has fewer buttons to fiddle with. It may give the impression of far fewer functions but these are accessed by fewer buttons instead of having buttons specifically assigned to them.Using the manual, it took me a couple of hours to figure out how it works and not much longer to punch in my frequencies. I didn't by the software so I've gone the laborious route. Once mastered, it's easy to use.It picks up everything I've been picking up with the Grecom and doesn't seem to have any reception problems. I tested it against the Grecom on a sub-squelch transmission (an airport ATIS channel) and the Bearcat seems to pull in a bit more background noise than the Grecom but it's nothing major.The supplied antenna is actually quite good - although the above-mentioned ATIS transmission was barely audible, it does very well on above-squelch signals and I've been happily pulling in aircraft up to 80 miles away (if the reporting points are anything to go by). It is not as good as my MRW100 antenna but you won't be slapping your forehead in frustration as you might with most manufacturer-supplied rubber ducks.I've not used close call because i live in the sticks and am trying for distant signals. One plus is that unlike the Grecom (which has a glitch), I can pick up PMR446 transmissions. You have to press the function button then the rotary knob to access the squelch but I count it as a good thing - it means that I can't knock it too high by fumbling.Unless I've not found it yet, the Bearcat seems to lack an attenuation function, which the Grecom has. Airband freq 133.8 tends to need attenuating where I live or I have to lock it out so attenuation would be a handy feature.It ate the supplied alkaline batteries but does better with NiMH rechargeables (2500ma) so it's best to carry spares if you're going to be out with it for a while. I used a trickle or fast charger rather than charging them in the scanner.But in summary, I'm very pleased with the Bearcat, which is a great out-and-about scanner that works very well out of the box with the supplied rubber duck and I heartily recommend it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good. Very good!
Very good for me - I use it mainly for listening to ATC. I live in north London and have it hooked up to an external Swedish-made professional airband rx/tx antenna and have no problems receiving LHR, LGW, STN airports, including ground traffic.Being able to add tags to the frequencies is so useful but is a bit of a palaver doing it on the scanner - much better to use programming software on your pc - the scanner has the older USB mini type B socket for connection using an appropriate cable. There's not much of a choice of software to do this, and you'll probably come across BuTel software, which is fine, if a little expensive - around €30 last time I looked. Whatever you do, do NOT try and get the software for free by using TrialPay - IT'S A SCAM!! I know as I got caught!Apart from airband I've only taken the scanner out to my local shopping centre to try the Close Call feature to identify local transmissions. It worked well, and in addition to picking-up security etc, it also picked up the local buses!The scanner is solidly built and has so many customisable options that it will take you a while to learn what it can do. Uniden provide a (~70 pages) printed manual in English, which is nice, not to say unusual these days, but if you prefer you can also download it as a PDF.The antenna connector is a BNC and there are many third party antennae available for it.Sound quality is good and clear for my purposes and having just tried it at max is more than adequate, but distorts a little, but I guess that's to be expected with a small speaker.I had a Uniden Bearcat UBC 100XL in the 1980s for airband reception and loved it. I worked at an airport then and occasionally took it into work with me, especially when on nightshifts, so that when I was out on the apron I could track my inbounds. It was brilliant which is why I chose Uniden again.I'm not sure the batter life on this is that great - it comes with a set of 2300mAh Ni-MH rechargeable batteries which are charged via the USB socket, but there's no auto-sensor circuitry to stop when the batteries are charged. Instead you have to set a charging time via the options, which is a bit cr*p in my opinion. As I use the scanner at home I simply removed the batteries and have it connected via the USB cable to my pc, which works well.Squelch is via the menu system - there's no knob, and the single knob on top is multi-function. Turn it and it changes channel/frequency, push it down first and it controls the volume. It functions differently depending on the mode you are in, and it clicks as it turns, which is nice, although to be honest the click feels a little lightweight, plasticky…or cheap.The rubber buttons however have a nice action to them and a positive click when pressed. You can have a beep too when they are pressed, and this can be turned off in the options.Anyway, this wasn't meant to be an in-depth review as I haven't used it that much, but sometimes when I start typing I can't stop!But for my purposes it fits the bill very well indeed.I hope this has been of some use to someone :-)
Der Marktstandard
Der UBC125XLT ist nicht umsonst einer der bekanntesten und verbreitetsten Handscanner auf dem Markt.Der Scanner verfügt über 500 Speicherplätze in 10 Bänken, die entweder am Gerät selbst, oder per Software benannt werden können.Mit einer Range von 25-960 MHz (mit Lücken) ist das Gerät ein wahres Multitalent und deckt alles ab, was im Funkverkehr interessant werden könnte.Zur einfacheren Nutzung sind 7 Servicebänder vorprogrammiert, so dass auch Einsteiger ein rasches Ergebnis im gewünschen Anwendungsbereich erzielen können. Darunter sind Flugfunk, Marinefunk, CB und mehr.Die Bedienung setzt ein kleines Grundverständnis voraus, geht aber einfach von der Hand und ist schon nach kurzer Eingewöhnung intuitiv.Die Bedieungsanleitung liegt nur in Englisch bei, wer dies nicht versteht, findet allerdings zahlreiche Tutorials auf YouTube.Betrieben wird der Scanner mit 2 AA Batterien. Es liegen Akkus bei, die auch intern via USB geladen werden können. Ein Wechsel auf Einwegbatterien ist jederzeit möglich.Erfahrungsgemäß halten frische Batterien bei ausgeschalteter Displaybeleuchtung problemlos 8 Stunden.Der Scanner hat einen 3,5mm Klinkenausgang für Kopfhörer, sowie einen BNC Anschluss für die Antenne.Die beiligende Antenne habe ich zur Empfangsverbesserung mit einer Comet AB 1230H ersetzt.Der Vollständigkeit halber weise ich darauf hin, dass die Gesetzeslage zum Abhören verschiedener Frequenzen abhängig ist, vom Land in dem man sich befindet.Der bloße Besitz eines solchen Geräts ist in jedem Fall legal!
