Dear Members,

I have just been reading an old Forum Topic of some considerable time ago, and I'd been wondering just WHY more than one person here had changed their UBC785XLT for a Bearcat BCT 15x. - I'd kind of understood that the UBC785XLT was very good.............?

(This is a re-print of the 3 or so entries in that previous Forum Topic I refered to):-

I have a BCT15X and have also previously owned a UBC785XLT. The BCT15X is similar to the UBC800XLT they can be difficult to enter frequencies unless you have a PC. The BCT15X was supplied with control software in the box.

Performance wise I would say VHF/UHF airband is similar with all these receivers.

I would have a look at this site that gives unbiased reviews on all scanners.  http://www.ukmidlandscanner.co.uk/

you could ask everyone on this forum and they would all give you their view on a good scanner.

It all depends on your what you want. IE price, technical ability, and storage and ease of use.

Thanks a lot MHM, Mike,


Your URL/site recomendation is greatly appreciated.

For me, I suppose, quality wins, provided of course that one isn't paying a huge premium for a relatively small improvement.

Thanks again for your trouble,


John.

The owner has dealt with scanners for many years. he gives very good product write ups, and does not give inacute info. If its not up to scratch he tells you.

Glad you found it useful.
