Reboot the slave scanner to load the new settings. Note: All settings and data saved on the Slave scanner will be erased. Generally even if there were a Operator Manual the operation is a bit painful and only partly intuitive. All esoteric function requires the manual to pull off. The unit is feature rich but here in Europe most of these are of no use. Have not tried to use the GPS , this seems interesting if you travel a bit but I think it is probably more a selling point than useful. Get a copy of the "easier to read" manual. Then take the unit, and spend some time with it and go through every function enumerated by hand. It is a long trip from your classic scanner to this, but in the last 20 years, your TV, computer and cell phone have changed too.

To toggle between ID Scan or ID Search mode while scanning each trunked system, press ● then Scan/Srch. Transitioning from conventional analogue scanners I agree with comments here that the unit is totally useless without in-depth study of the non-existent manual. For what I use this scanner for (mainly Airband monitoring, we do not have any trunking systems here) it does the job reasonably well and fast. But the learning curve for older folks is steep. Although I fully understand the DMA arrangement (and find it useful) I still do not get the top level philosophy of how the unit is meant to be operated by a power user. If this is not your only scanner you will likely forget the how-to of even elementary things like calling up a single channel to monitor and de-activating groups in systems >#10. If you don’t get the key sequence right all sorts of interesting things may happen and you ay easily screw the config up. The possible combination of searches and scans is highly confusing and at times unwanted searches come up when you make some settings. Using a programming and/or operating SW is a must, so get a serial port cable. I use Pro Scan and its features for recording and remote control are very powerful indeed. This is where this scanner shines. But getting it all set up is literally hard work.receiving transmissions. You can also set the frequency band(s) where you want the scanner to look for transmissions. When the You will need a computer to program it. You probably can program by hand, but why ? I have 350 or so channels, some have DCS, some PL, and most are open. My location is high enough that I can usually hear my local outlet, and often a co channel occupant 20 miles away, so I have to PL/DCS to keep the gadget from hanging on the distant signal, always just enough to break squelch. Important! There are many options and settings in Search/Close Call Options that effect and compliment the settings

Products to be reviewed typically should be tangible ham radio related items such as radios, antennas, towers, test equipment, feedlines, etc. The BCT15X follows on the success of theBCT15, but expands memory to 9000 channels (with up to 500 channels per trunked system), enhanced GPS compatibility (controls the scanning of groups of channels within systems), channel number tagging, Fire Tone-Out Search (to identify the tones used on fire paging dispatch channels, band scope, individual channel volume offset and priority ID scan for trunked systems.

I’m new to the world of radio scanners, and I just wanted to have something to hear what’s going on in my town. At first, it was difficult for me to set up the scanner as I wanted, but after a while, it’s much easier to use. The sound quality is great, and the radio is sturdy for its size and fits perfectly in my vehicle. My advice is you find YouTube videos explaining how to set up the scanner – I found those much more helpful than written instructions.” Mikey G.
