As a scanner hobbies who has owned every scanner made sice crystals, this is one I passed on initially after seeing specs. It is not a digital scanner in the sense that the target is not public service in terms of police, fire, etc, although you can receive limited stuff still conventional and not trunked. I have loads of scanners, all mainly trunk radios like SDS100, SDS200, 325P2 etc. With upgrades, some of which I have, these digital modes are available, at a higher cost in a higher priced radio, that's not really search-friendly. The 125AT (and 325P2) has always been a favorite for me for searching general frequencies. The 125AT is built for searching. I recently pulled out my trusty 125AT, got re-engaged in the search hobby, and even picked up another 125AT to have in a different location. Then I reconsidered the 160DN. Still seemed a little on the high side compared to the 125AT, but other than P25, the main digital mode for police etc, it decodes a pile of other digital modes, automatically. This thing is a giant step up from the 125AT in that you get all the higher 700-900 mz range, as long as it is not P25. The radio even recognizes P25 and resumes without noise. I have way fewer lockout because the radio cuts a lot of that out when you search digital modes only. It saves your finds with all the system mode, type and color code nonsense automatically without you manually setting up a channel, though you can do it if you want. Reconsider this one if you passed on it initially like I did. Review: Terrible Battery Life - This unit has a battery life of about 4 hours...very disappointing. All I do is charge it. I would not recommend this just because of the poor battery life. ## Features - The Uniden BCD160DN sets the standard for performance, features, and innovation.

All I do is charge it. I would not recommend this just because of the poor battery life. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great scanner just make sure it fits your needs. *by M***N on October 12, 2025* Great scanner for what it is designed to do. Just be careful and do your research on what you need for your area. This scanner Does both conventional and digital modes however it only does NXDN and DMR for digital modes. It does not have any trunking features so make sure you don't need trunking. This is a great scanner for those wanting to listen to trains/railroads and it receives aircraft really well. very easy to program from the scanner itself however you do have the option of programming via a PC with the free software from Uniden. If you need a simple HH scanner that does simple NXDN and DMR then I can highly recommend this scanner. ## Frequently Bought Together - Uniden Bearcat BCD160DN Handheld Digital Scanner, Exclusive Features, Band Scope Rapid System/Channel Number Tagging, Narrow-Band Reception, and Search Features to Detect Signals Faster Than Ever - Bingfu VHF UHF Ham Amateur Radio Police Scanner Antenna Magnetic Base BNC Male Antenna Compatible with Uniden Bearcat Whistler Shack Police Scanner Radio - Bingfu VHF UHF Car Truck Police Scanner Adhesive Mount Antenna Vehicle Mobile Ham Amateur Radio BNC Male Dipole Antenna Compatible with Uniden Bearcat Whistler Shack Radio Scanner --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/614496374-uniden-bearcat-bcd160dn-handheld-digital-scanner-exclusive-features-band-scope](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/614496374-uniden-bearcat-bcd160dn-handheld-digital-scanner-exclusive-features-band-scope) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-05-29*
