Will this antenna work with a uniden Bct8 scanner

The frequency sensitivity of the Tram 1185 Dual-Band Antenna is completely compatible with the Uniden BCT8, but you may need a simple antenna adapter to mate the cable plug to the input of the scanner. Have fun!

Yes it does. You just need to be sure they are analog and not digital. This scanner will only receive analog broadcasts. You can find out by checking at radioreference.com in their database.

Hi, Please refer to ASIN B006JVUAMM for the compatible antenna. Thanks, PCrush

Yes - it takes a specific antenna connection, I do not know what the specification is.

I am unaware a bug with this Uniden scanner as I have had mine since February 19th. I do know that Uniden has been updating the scanner software and owners manual as well through the USB cable hooked to your scanner! As my personal opinion this product was rushed out the door too soon before it was ready!

Unless the scanner runs off a coaxial cable, I doubt it. This device is specifically for boosting signal in a long run of coaxial. It has some functionality in cleaning up signal noise, but again I doubt it does what you wish it do. There is other equipment specifically designed to clean up and boost signals transmitted and received by radio equipment. Ask a ham radio operator or equipment stores that service ham radio.

I would say yes. I am using a short ext cord on a scanner and everything is working fine. Make sure the ext cord is the right size to handle the load.

No it will not. Additionally there is a new Uniden scanner coming in late January that has features that will allow the coverage of several additional systems. Search for "BCD536HP". That is the new one everyone is waiting for. I acually returned the 996xt so I could get the BCD536HP in the coming days.

I don't see how it wouldn't. The CB antenna connections are standard. I have had mine hooked up to a Cobra and a Uniden so you should be just fine.

Yes, there are some considerations for this depending on your needs. Great information can be found regarding this topic here: http://www.scannermaster.com/Uniden_Bearcat_BC346XT_Police_Scanner_p/10-501357.htm

I think that as long as this antenna is mounted segurely on the poll and you can get it in the right direction, it may work. I have nmot tried it with this poll.

Probably not. I have this scanner. Doesn't work with quite a few things. And I doubt it will work for that car.

No, the only scanner Uniden says is APCO 25 is the BCD396XT and sells for about $400

I am waiting until I see this answer. I would like to buy this scanner if compatible.

Yes, it will work as long as your Uniden has a BNC connection which I believe it does. Something to note if you plan to purchase one of these antennas, some types of tint, window defogging strips, and built-in glass FM or security system antennas can greatly affect this antenna. Just make sure you have a good, clear, spot on your glass.

It will work with any receiver. What you have to be careful of is the connector. Most receivers have one screw for hooking a simple wire on or two screws or a RG59 screw on connector. This Dipole has a different connector. I had to cut it off and replace it. If yours has two screws for a antenna just cut there's off and trim the wires and connect it to the two screws. Fairly easy. Hope this was clear enough.

Yes it will. However, in my case I did not see any performance improvement using this antenna. I ended up returning it and sticking with the stock antenna.
