Hey guy’s I realize this is a older video but I just purchased a BCD436HP and I’m obviously getting more from say a scanner app on my phone but now that it’s 14 years old is it really worth it or is there a different scanner I should buy for the same or similar amount of money because as you know these definitely aren’t cheap. Thanks in advance guy’s.
Hi Scanner Guys! I'm a law student doing some research on Uniden Bearcat scanner radios from the 1990s. I'm wondering if, at the time, the serial number would come on the outside packaging/box (as well as the radio itself). Thank you!
i down loaded sentinel software. checked for updates ,but the county i really need switched to digital about 2 months ago and looks like the software is still showing all the analog freq lee county ,ia thanks for any kelp
Hi. Wondering if you can help. I have the 436hp, do I need to upgrade software to get my local police dispatch? They are on ap25 phase 2 I believe. I set it to scan with a programmed SD card for my county and nothing seems to come thru.
First, thanks for the great content. A question on the state-wide trunk systems. If I set the location distance to 30 miles for example, it seems to eliminate any of the trunking sites outside that range. Is that accurate? It also means if I drive around the state, I'll hear the sites I'm within range of rather than having to "add" sites back in as I need them. Thanks again. Cliff
Not really. I prefer a Mac but need to use my wife's Windows computer to use Sentinel so I can update firmware. That being said, if you have a Windows emulator for Mac, such as "Wine", it is supposedly possible but I know nothing about doing that.
Great video in june 2023, use of sentinel software in windows 11 requires careful navigation of pull downs also basic skills of windows computing (ie copy/paste) a bit difficult for an old 80 yr old man scanner fan, but learnable! 73
I have a Bcd436hp my city fire and police are using p25. I had known trouble listening too them . They switched over too p25 phase 2 . I upgrade my scanner too phase 2 I can only pickup a like on it and a couple day go bye and nothing is heard, do y’all have any ideas what going on with scanner?

All of the sudden it will not make a connection to the internet or see my BCD436? Have the latest version.

Hey Jonathan... Where can I get a t-shirt like the one you're wearing.. I like it.
That’s our older logo. But we have our newer logo shirts here - the-scanner-guys.creator-spring.com/
Great video. I have a BCD536HP coming in today. I'm a firefighter and a storm chaser so this unit should be a great tool for me.
Hows it been working for you?

Glad you enjoyed it!
Scanner guys have a app?

It could be a few things. I would need to know more to trouble shoot the problem.
