В общем, детская мечта иметь радиостанцию приняла неожиданные очертания. Теперь идея CB в машине временно отложена, т.к. основная задача была слушать 15 канал дальнобоев. Ну и иные детские мечты слушать разные частоты тоже была, а тут подвернулась возможность заиметь сканирующий радиоприемник uniden bc95xlt.
Пока настроил собственно дальнобоев на частоте 27.135 ну и частоту посадки в Шереметьево 131.500. На выходных займусь частотой МКС. По расписанию пролета и с подходящей антенной можно их тоже слушать.
Завтра поеду к теще, послушаю трассу. Счастья полные штаны))

Precautions
Before you use this scanner, please read and observe the following.
IMPORTANT!
This scanning radio has been manufactured so that it will not tune to the radio frequencies assigned by the FCC for cellular telephone usage. The Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986, as amended, makes it a federal crime to intentionally intercept cellular or cordless telephone transmissions or to market this radio when altered to receive them. The installation, possession, or use of this scanning radio in a motor vehicle may be prohibited, regulated, or require a permit in certain states, cities, and/or local jurisdictions. Your local law enforcement officials should be able to provide you with information regarding the laws in your community.
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Uniden, or operation of this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating Guide, could void your authority to operate this product.
EARPHONE WARNING!
Be sure to use only a monaural earphone with this scanner. You can also use an optional mono headset. Use of an incorrect earphone or mono headset might be potentially hazardous to your hearing. The output of the phone jack is monaural, but you will hear it in both headphones of a stereo headset.
Set the volume to a comfortable audio level coming from the speaker before plugging in the monaural earphone or headset. Otherwise, you might experience some discomfort or possible hearing

The FCC Wants You To Know
This scanner has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a scanning receiver, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This scanner generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this scanner does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the scanner on and off, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
•Increase the separation between the scanner and the receiver
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Scanning Legally
Your scanner covers frequencies used by many different groups, including police and fire departments, ambulance services, government agencies, private companies, amateur radio services, military operations, pager services, and wireline (telephone and telegraph) service providers. It is legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner can receive.
The FCC Wants You To Know
7
However, there are some transmissions that you should never intentionally listen to. These include:
•Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other private means of telephone signal transmission)
•Pager transmissions
•Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions
According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), you are subject to fines and possible imprisonment for intentionally listening to, using, or divulging the contents of such a conversation unless you have the consent of a party to the conversation (unless such activity is otherwise illegal). This scanner has been designed to prevent the reception of cellular telephone transmissions and the decoding of scrambled transmissions. This is done to comply with the legal requirement that scanners be manufactured so they are not easy to modify to pick up these transmissions. Do not open your scanner’s case to make any modifications that could allow it to pick up transmissions that are illegal to monitor. Modifying or tampering with your scanner’s internal components or using it in a way other than as described in this manual could invalidate your warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.
In some areas, mobile use of this scanner is unlawful or requires a permit. Check the laws in your area. It is also illegal in many areas (and a bad idea everywhere) to interfere with the duties of public safety officials by traveling to the scene of an incident without authorization.

Feature Highlights
Close CallTM RF Capture Technology — you can set the scanner so it detects and provides information about nearby radio transmissions. See “Close CallTM RF Capture Technology” on Page 37 for more information.
Pager Screen — lets you set the scanner so it does not detect pager frequencies during Close Call search.
Chain Search — lets you enter personal search bands in 10 locations and search all locations in a chain of frequency bands.
Triple-Conversion Circuitry — virtually eliminates any interference from IF (intermediate frequency) images, so you hear only the selected frequency.
Channel-Storage Banks — the scanner has 10 banks. You can store up to 20 frequencies into each bank (for a total of 200 frequencies), so you can more easily identify calls.
Two-Second Scan Delay — delays scanning for about 2 seconds before moving to another channel, so you can hear more replies that are made on the same channel.
Lock-Out Function — lets you set your scanner to skip over specified channels or frequencies when scanning or searching.
Priority Channels — lets you program one channel in each bank (10 in all) and then have the scanner check that channel every 2 seconds while it scans the bank, so you do not miss transmissions on those channels.
Six Service Banks — frequencies are preset in separate police, Fire/emergency, aircraft, ham,

marine, and weather banks, to make it easy to locate specific types of calls.
Key Lock — lets you lock the scanner’s keys to help prevent accidental changes to the scanner’s programming.
PC Programming — lets you quickly program the scanner using your PC and optional software.
Direct Access — lets you directly access any channel.
Display Backlight — makes the scanner easy to read in low-light situations.
Flexible Antenna with BNC Connector — provides adequate reception in strong signal areas and is designed to help prevent antenna breakage.
Or, you can connect an external antenna for better reception.
Memory Backup — keeps the frequencies stored in memory for an extended time if the scanner loses power.
Two Power Options — let you power the scanner using internal batteries or external AC power using the included AC adapter.
Key Confirmation Tones — the scanner sounds a tone when you perform an operation correctly, and an error tone if you make an error.

Understanding Scanning
To get the most from this manual, review the contents to become familiar with the basic functions available. If you are new to scanning, be sure to read “Understanding Scanning” on Page 14 for a quick background on the technology behind the hobby. The first thing you’ll need to do is install batteries in the scanner. Then you need to connect the included antenna to the scanner. See “Using Internal Batteries” on Page 19 and “Connecting the Antenna” on Page 23 if you need any help doing this.
Understanding Scanning
This section provides you with background on how scanning works. You don’t really need to know all of this to use your scanner, but some background knowledge will help you get the most from your BC95XLT.
What is Scanning?
Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most twoway communications do not transmit continuously. Your BC95XLT scans programmed channels until it finds an active frequency, then stops on that frequency and remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanning cycle resumes until the scanner receives another transmission.
What is Searching?
The BC95XLT can search for active frequencies. This is different from scanning because you are searching for frequencies that have not been programmed into the scanner. When you select frequency bands to search, the scanner searches for any active frequency within the lower and upper limits you specify. When the scanner finds an active

frequency, it stops on that frequency as long as the transmission lasts. If you think the frequency is interesting, you can program it into one of the banks. If not, you can continue to search.
Conventional Scanning
Conventional scanning is a relatively simple concept. Each group of users in a conventional system is assigned a single frequency (for simplex systems) or two frequencies (for repeater systems). Any time one of them transmits, their transmission always goes out on the same frequency. Up until the late 1980’s this was the primary way that radio systems operated.
Even today, there are many 2-way radio users who operate using a conventional system:
•Aircraft
•Amateur radio
•FRS/GMRS users
•Broadcast AM/FM/TV stations
•Many business radio users
When you want to store a conventional system, all you need to know is the frequencies they operate on. When you are scanning a conventional system, the scanner stops very briefly on each channel to see if there is activity. If there isn’t, the scanner quickly moves to the next channel. If there is, then the scanner pauses on the transmission until it is over.
Simplex Operation
Simplex systems use a single frequency for both transmit and receive. Most radios using this type of operation are limited to line-of-sight operation. This type of radio is frequently used at construction job sites, and with inexpensive consumer radios such as

GMRS/FRS radios. The range is typically 1-8 miles, depending upon the terrain and many other factors.
Repeater Operation
Repeater systems use two frequencies: one transmits from the radio to a central repeater; the other transmits from the repeater to other radios in the system. With a repeater-based system, the repeater is located on top of a tall building or on a radio tower that provides great visibility to the area of operation. When a user transmits (on an input frequency), the signal is picked up by the repeater and retransmitted (on an output frequency). The user’s radios always listen for activity on the output frequency and transmit on the input frequency. Since the repeater is located very high, there is a very large line of sight. Typical repeater systems provide coverage out to about a 25-mile radius from the repeater location.
Where To Obtain More Information
By itself, this manual really only provides part of what you need to know to have fun scanning – how to program and use the scanner.
Information On The Internet
The Internet is a great source for current frequencies and information about scanning.
Many web sites have lists of frequencies for your area. You can use a search engine to find and use them.
Make a list of the agencies you want to listen to, then look up the frequencies and systems used by those agencies. Here are a few useful sites:

Setting Up Your Scanner
These guidelines will help you install and use your new scanner:
•If your scanner receives interference or electrical noise, move the scanner or its antenna away from the source. You might also try changing the height or angle of the telescoping antenna.
•To improve the scanner’s reception, use an optional external antenna designed for multiband coverage. (You can purchase this type of antenna at a local electronics store). If the optional antenna has no cable, use 50-70 ohm coaxial cable for lead-in. A mating plug might be necessary for the optional antennas.
•Use an optional mono earphone or mono headset with proper impedance for private listening. Read the precautions on the inside front cover of this Owners Manual.
•Do not use the scanner in high-moisture environments such as the kitchen or bathroom.
•Avoid placing the scanner in direct sunlight or near heating elements or vents.
Using Internal Batteries
You can power your scanner using two alkaline or rechargeable AA batteries (not supplied).
Using Non-Rechargeable Batteries
1.Make sure the power is turned off.
2.Slide the battery compartment cover.
3.Before you install alkaline or any other nonrechargeable batteries, use a pointed object such as a ballpoint pen to set REG. ALK. BATT./ NI-MH BATT. inside the compartment to REG. ALK. BATT..
