is this a high freq.scanner

Sorry. Not sure. I live in a rural community and have mine hooked up at work because for some reason all I would get is static at home. I was told it is because of the rock/adobe walls! I work at a law enforcement office and the channels work properly there.

I sent mine back I couldn't get the. 5 Digits to program in for .just 4. Would for me

I'm sorry I don't know enough about computers to answer your question. However we are very satisfied with the scanner.

The unit does have a lot of memory and the memory can be organized into channel groups and then scanned. However the frequency coverage is limited compared to a conventional scanner so make sure you review the specs.

Technically yes, it can scan anything from 764.00000-960.00000MHz. You don't even need the P25 Network Access Code (NAC), this scanner will pick it up and detect the code automatically, although it is better to save the code to the scanner as it will help block out interference.** BUT ** if the department(s) you are trying to listen to have their radio traffic encrypted on the P25 system, the unit, nor any other unit can decode the encrypted P25 traffic.

It does have a scan feature, but the frequencies would have to be in the radio's frequency range, and that would depend on each gov't department and what frequencies they use. It is not designed for, nor would it work well as a dedicated portable scanner.

To be very honest, I have not used this unit in quite some time. I am still trying to figure out HOW this damn thing works. I know all local frequencies by heart, but setting up which where who and how..... just to get the thing to scan is less than impossible. I have used other brands in the past with excellent results. I think this was a mistake. But to answer your question, some emergency departments have the burst of "static" sounding stuff at the end of each transmission. You might try turning down the SQUELCH. This may not help but I tried.

Yes, I recommend it. I've had four different scanners. This is by far the best, light, multiple resolution settings, color or b/w. I love this one.

No - if you haven't bought it don't! I bought one several years ago - it worked for about a month. It was glitchy and cumbersome to use. Brother, who makesthe scanner had little/no support.

This scanner is a piece of junk. Mine will not program properly. I have had 2 or 3 other brands of scanners and had no problem!

The radio has a dual channel display - upper/lower. You can scan the top level with your chioce of frequencies you program and let the lower stay on any other. Or you can not scan and just monitor two of your choice. It's a solid radio and you can't beat the price. The only thing I was challenged was initial programming. I did it manually -but after you figure out the pattern of programming its simple. Those programming software downloads out there didn't work for me. Hope this helps you out.

I don't think so. My son has it so I cannot run out and check. Different channels need different squelch settings so I've never found that to be useful anyway. Add the noisy nature of AM and the scan isn't that valuable. You can find the manual here --&gt;http://www.uniden.com/content/ebiz/uniden/resources/ownersmanuals/PRO520XLom.pdf

Yes, if you have the frequencies through somewhere such as radio reference, this scanner will receive them. It is a digital scanner and I use it to listen to my local police and county who recently transitioned from analog to digital. It has a learning curve but if you use programming software it is pretty easy.

You can scan various frequencies. I don't have the frequency of your police channels, so I can't answer your question.

The antenna is not weatherproof and really is not very useful. Plan on replacing the antenna with something that will suit your usage. The antenna supplied is resonant around 1000 mHz and is not effective for amateur or most scanner use except for only the strongest signals.

I'm not sure on the exact freq spectrum but owning one of these I can tell you it does not hit anywhere near as low as 60hz

It doesn't auto-scan. You will need to select a frequency to broadcast it on.

yes, it is high frequency 900mhz to 1200mhz depending which model you get and you have to experiment the placement of the camera& reciever for best quality picture.i have 2 of them and they work fine and patience is needed it to get a good picture.
