The BC125AT is actually a very good scanner for the price. Most of the negative reviews were written by idiots who have no business with a scanner. One person complained it wasn’t digital so it couldn’t receive police and fire channels. That person should have read the specs. This is a conventional scanner for analog voice reception. If you don’t understand what that means, you shouldn’t buy any scanner! This scanner is for receiving conventional systems only, which means it won’t receive trunked systems. This scanner is for receiving analog voice only, which means it cannot receive digital voice. If you need trunking or digital voice capability then buy the appropriate scanner type. There are still some police and fire departments using conventional systems and broadcasting in analog voice, and this scanner does an excellent job of receiving those, and it does an excellent job receiving railroad channels, commercial aircraft frequencies, and any other conventional systems using analog voice. Don’t blame the scanner for your ignorance of radio communications! And BTW, aircraft frequencies use the AM mode, not the FM mode, so that is why one idiot couldn’t hear aircraft. Is it difficult to program for the average layperson? Yes! Radios require a fair amount of knowledge to program. If you cannot figure out how to do it then you are the problem, not the scanner. The BC125AT is not a CB nor an AM/FM preprogrammed radio. It was designed for radio enthusists who know how to program and use it. If that describes you, then I recommend this conventional system with analog voice scanner. -

Since everything is going digital (P25) my Uniden 436hp is busy scanning those channels so needed a decent analog scanner.
Wanted alpha tagging so this was my choice.
Great little scanner easy PC programming or its easy doing it manual just takes a bit of time doing the tagging this way.
No complaints here. -
