There are not a lot of choices out there for P25 Phase II handheld scanners, but when I decided to get back into the hobby and discovered my old Radio Shack Pro-94 could no longer pickup most of the transmissions in my area, most of what I wanted to monitor had moved to P25, it was time to invest in a new scanner. One of the major groups I wanted to monitor used P25 Phase II, which greatly limited my choices for scanners, there are not a lot of scanners in this space that were not terribly expensive. After a bit of research I chose the BCD325P2, as a good mid-range P25 Phase II capable scanner. Many reviews state this scanner is nearly impossible to program, I have to disagree. If you are more familiar with the older bank-style programming, then yes, it is different and you do have to think differently when programming this scanner, but once you wrap your head around the System/Site/Group/Channel hierarchy this scanner uses, it is actually not bad at all to program it. It took me less than half an hour to enter the two major trunking systems in my area, that consisted of 4 sites with about 200 channels that I split into about 8 groups, and this was programming it by hand, not using a computer. So if you take the time to understand its method of storing systems, then you will not have any issue programming this. Yes, it has more steps to program than the Pro-94 I had before, but the flow of it is pretty easy once you understand it. So my advice is to understand the methodology of this scanner before trying to program it, you will have an easier time. The screen is crisp and easy to read in good lighting, or in darker lighting by using its backlight. the buttons all have nice solid tactile feedback as well as key beeps, you absolutely know when you have hit a button. For such a small unit, its built-in speaker was plenty loud enough for me, it does have a earphone jack for either private listening or listening in a noisier environment. The only real downside of this scanner is it chews through batteries. It uses two AA batteries, and with good alkaline batteries will last 6 to 8 hours. I would highly recommend using rechargeable batteries in this unit. It does come with two NIMH rechargeable batteries, but they are mediocre quality, I would buy a couple sets of good ones and then charge them overnight and you should get a good days listening with 2 to 3 sets that you charged overnight. The manual is pretty cryptic if you are not really familiar with scanning and the technology this scanner uses, it does pretty much cover everything, but not in the most logical way, I would say it is not written for the beginner. There are some good resources you can find online that will help you get going with this scanner. If you are looking for a good P25 Phase II handheld scanner, this unit would be very hard to beat at its price point. If you are willing to put in the effort to understand this scanner, then you will get a lot out of it.

Love this scanner! Background: Have been into scanners for about 40 years or so. Worked in Fire/Rescue and Law Enforcement for the better part of 25 years. Some of my favorite scanners in the past have been the 246T, the 346XT, the 396XT and the Radio Shack Pro 668 which I did the Legacy upgrade to with Whistler.. My current scanners prior to the 325P2 that I used regularly were the 396XT and the Pro-668. When I got the 325P2 I programmed it real quick using Freescan. This unit picks up signals clearer than my older 2 scanners. Speaker on the 325P2 is way better than any scanner I've ever had in the past and I've had a lot. I like the form factor. As others have noted it only takes two AA batteries but I found that with fully charged batteries I get several hours worth of use out of it. Just have an extra spare set of batteries and rotate them out and that problem is solved. I would not recharge batteries inside scanner. Of course this style of scanner is very difficult for most people to program. I think that's why people get frustrated and return these units so frequently. There are a lot of videos out there on how to program this scanner with Freescan. On a side note, when the scanner was on sale for Black Friday week it was going for $322. Amazon ended up selling out of new scanners at that price. I took a huge chance and bought a used one under the Amazon Resale Program. I chose one in Like New condition, which according to their policy means that the unit should be pristine and everything that it originally comes with is included and that means the original box as well although the Box may be slightly damaged. The return policy is the normal 30 days as it is for any other type of purchase on Amazon so I gave it a chance. The original price for my purchase was $315 but then they knocked off 20% because it was a used unit which brought it down to about $250. When I got the delivery it was missing the original box which I kind of wanted in case I ever sell it in the future when a new scanner comes out that I want. I got a hold of Amazon and they took another $30 off so I got this scanner for $220 and everything was brand new. The scanner had never been programmed and every single accessory was still in the original Uniden packaging as well as the scanner. Not a mark on it. I was very very happy with this particular role of the dice. I briefly thought of getting the SDS100 which I'm sure is a fine scanner but there was just something that wouldn't let me spend $650 plus tax on that scanner. For the deal I got on the 325P2 I am super happy!

I bought this Uniden BCD325P2 scanner on Amazon for $100 less than it was offered by other resellers. I was looking for a scanner that received P25 Phase 2 unencrypted digital trunked broadcasts. I am listening to fire and EMS calls in Lee County, Florida since I received it five days ago. Scanning site 2 at about16 miles away, the scanner would display between 1 and 3 bars of reception, sometimes 4 bars. Receiving the broadcasts was hit or miss, Sometimes I would hear broadcasts and sometimes the scanner missed calls. I purchased a Alinco REM-800B (Remtronix) antenna and replaced the scanner's stock antenna. With the new antenna it has a consistent 5 bars reception and the scanner appears to drop no calls. I tried programming the scanner by hand using the included instruction booklet. It was very frustrating and I decided to purchase ProScan software to program the scanner using the scanner's included USB cable and my Windows 10 laptop. With the ProScan software, programming the scanner was a breeze. I already had a Radio Reference account and the ProScan software quickly downloaded the frequencies and Talk Groups I wanted into the scanner. The $347 purchase on Amazon seems to be a good deal. But I added $43 for the antenna (including shipping) and $50 for ProScan. I already have a premium subscription to Radio Reference, but if you don't it is $15 for 6 months and $30 for a year subscription.

Where do I start? This thing is an absolute nightmare to program. If you don't use software forget it. Manual is totally useless. Now on to the hardware. Using a USB cable to provide power to run a portable radio is a very poor choice. Taking the cable in and out a thousand times will only result in failure at some point. I don't believe an engineer would choose this over the ultimate in reliability - the traditional round power plug. Next, in order to change the volume you have to press the button down while simultaneously turning the knob. The volume knob uses a détente which clicks. Bad design. Lastly, and most importantly, the device cannot charge batteries unless it is off. This is a FABULOUS design. I don't know anyone that buys a scanner to have it off. You also have to manually program it to tell the device how long you want to charge the batteries as the device doesn't stop charging when the batteries are fully charged. You have to constantly switch batteries or constantly turn the device off for up to 14 hours. I understand the dumb California law. Uniden should have done things like most other companies. Design a great product and then mark it as "Not for sale in California". I can't believe an electronics engineer would actually design a worthless device like this one. They had to be driven by high level managers driven by profit, managers who never used a scanner in their life. Uniden blew it. Products like this are what makes companies end up going out of business...................

As of the time of this review, I've been involved in the scanner hobby for almost 15 years. While I mainly listen to public safety (law enforcement, fire, EMS, etc), I like to branch out and listen to ANYTHING that can be received within the coverage range. Aside from the cell phone bands, you can receive any signal from 25 to 960 MHz provided it's not encrypted. This scanner is more sensitive than others I've used, which is great for receiving weaker, more distant signals. This is especially useful when listening to things like aircraft and railroads which often transmit from greater distances. However, if you're in an urban area, you may find that this scanner can overload easily and is more prone to interference from nearby transmitters. Thankfully, you can resolve this by using filters, applying the built-in attenuator (reduces signals by 20db), or using different antennas. The scanning and search speeds are CRAZY fast. I can easily scan through hundreds of frequencies in just a handful of seconds. Conveniently, this scanner has several service searches for services like public safety, HAM radio, marine, aircraft, and more. You can also program and use custom search ranges. One feature I love about Uniden scanners is Close Call. This scanner includes it, and allows you to tune into nearby signals. I like using this feature when walking through a mall or attending an airshow where you may not know or have frequencies programmed that are in use. You can run Close Call alone, or run it in the background while you're scanning or doing other searches. As a note, one annoyance when doing any kind of searching is that this scanner cannot receive analog CTCSS tones/DCS codes or digital (P25 NAC's, DMR Color Codes, NXDN RAN's) codes at the same time. It's a bit of a hassle that it has to be one or the other, but oh well. As stated in the title, this scanner is small. Despite this, I can easily grip it with my large hands thanks to its nice design. Its small footprint easily allows you to put it into your pocket, or throw it into your go-to bag. It takes 2 AA batteries, which are thankfully included and come charged. However, I HIGHLY recommend purchasing extra batteries and an external charger. While the included USB cable allows you to charge the batteries when plugged into a power source, I discourage its use since it solely relies on time and not other factors like voltage or capacity. This can damage your batteries, and may even pose a safety hazard (not cool, Uniden). Speaking of the USB cable, its other function is for programming via PC. Programming software (Windows only, sorry) is a MUST with this scanner. Not only can you keep copies of your programmed systems and channels, but it saves you tons of time. With a max capacity of 25,000 channels, I don't think you'd want to spend an entire day programming thousands of frequencies and/or talkgroups by hand. Plus, they also allow you to import data from the RadioReference database. Yes, you will need to pay for RR Premuim and the software, but it's well worth it if you want to spend more time listening instead of messing with the keypad. While beginners may struggle with this radio, once you understand how Uniden's DMA programming structure works, then it'll be a breeze. Instead of the old banks/channels method, DMA, or Dynamic Memory Architecture, has a hierarchical structure of systems, groups, and channels. I find that it's a better way to organize your programming, and is more efficient since you don't waste any space. It's a bit hard to explain, but imagine buying a dresser with the exact amount of drawers that you need. With banks/channels, you're basically wasting money on a large dresser where you end up with lots of drawers that you never use or need. Moving on, I like the display on this scanner. While it would be nice to change the color of the backlight, but I do like like the red-ish orange color. The text is large enough to be clearly read from a couple feet away. Unfortunately, the built-in speaker isn't the best as I often found that I had to really crank up the volume to hear some things. The good news is that you can plug in wired headphones or an external speaker into the 3.5mm jack on the top if needed. The build quality is decent at best as it doesn't feel like a toy, but isn't anywhere as rugged as a Motorola APX-series radio your local cops are likely using. All in all, I really enjoy this scanner. Even though my city took the unfortunate and (in my opinion) far-fetched approach to encrypt police AND fire dispatch, I can still listen to fire/EMS dispatch and mutual aid from the surrounding suburbs, along with other interesting things. While it may seem like overkill considering the price, this scanner does an excellent job scanning the airband, and I've received aircraft from almost 100 miles away just by using an antenna mounted in my attic! P25 digital sounds good, but simulcast systems can be hit or miss. If you're lucky like me, you may live within a mile from one of the simulcast towers, so it won't be an issue. DMR and NXDN digital modes can also be decoded, but you need to purchase the upgrade keys from Uniden in order to do that. I didn't think I'd type such a long review, but I wanted to provide as much information as possible since I don't want you to waste lots of money on something only for it to be too difficult or useless if you live in an area where all public safety agencies took the heavy-handed approach to encrypt everything. Thanks for reading, and keep those scanners on!

The battery life is not great with the two batteries but I've always known this with Uniden scanners only having two slots for batteries. I'm in a current dispute with a fraudulent seller known as Emerccy on AliExpress for the same item. The seller recycles tracking numbers or uses other tracking numbers. You will never get the product you paid for. Thank God Amazon had the product at a slightly higher price but at least I received it on time. Be careful with AliExpress sellers. The scanner to me is easy to program due to having experience with Uniden scanners. The reception is great and Uniden scanners are pretty durable even if they seem fragile. I have several that have been dropped, tossed around in my backpack and still running strong after several years.

Well I got a few things to say about this thing. To start, I was worried like everyone else about how difficult a digital radio would be to program and use and it turned out to actually be very easy. I took other reviews advice and played with the FreeScan software and that got me to figure out exactly how the P25 structure is set up before I even had the radio in my hand. It really did make it easy to get it going. Basically you got Systems (whatever your states P25 network is called), then Sites (the towers) and Groups (departments using those towers). Once you understand that everything else is a breeze. Now for the functionality. I saw people complaining about the battery life. Yes indeed, the rechargeables that come with it really do suck lasting only about five hours after full charge. How you going to make a radio cost this much and make it use double A and not have a lithium like Baofengs have? Secondly would be complaints about the antenna. I'm mixed about this. It seems to receive fine when I'm outside unobstructed, so long as you are within range of the towers. However once you get into a car or building the signal is significantly weakened or even blocked entirely so it doesn't seem to be that sensitive, and as for general user friendliness, I'd say it's fine. I figured out how to lock out things I don't want to hear and stuff pretty easy
