BEARTRACKER 885 Hybrid Full-Featured CB Radio + Digital TrunkTracking Police/Fire/Ambulance/DOT Scanner w/ BearTracker Warning System Alerts, 40-channel CB, 4-Watts power, 7-color display.

I only really use the scanner in bad weather conditions. It lets me hear the plows as well as LEO, so I am often aware of issues long before I get to the area. Love my Beartracker!

High quality CB radio. Scanner feature assumes that you are driving and should not be selecting fx. This is frustrating to me as I only want to listen to railroad channels or local airport channels. You can load pre defined channels from the manufacturer but you cannot currently edit those channels. Aside from this, 10/10.

Good radio have no complaints but would like to see one with frequencies on it

Love it, works well and I pick up all the DOT, Police, EMS and Fire which helps to maneuver around and get to work better since it is a 40 min drive.

I am both a scanner enthusiast and CB user. I do a lot of long-distance driving for pleasure. This unit is perfect for those drives! Turn it in and go. Simple. It works flawlessly. It’s very basic which is what I want for in car use. You can choose from any of the four services to monitor, police, fire, ambulance and DOT. One of transmissions heard one of those forwards will show on the screen. No talkgroup or frequency info. I’m fine with that. If I wanted more detail I could hook up my BCD436HP but with all the distracted driving laws the 885 makes more sense and does the job well. From what I understand it was only supposed to monitor dispatch frequencies/talkgroups but I have also been hearing TAC and TALK as well. It seems to handle encryption pretty well. If it stops unencrypted frequency most of the time it will release within two seconds. Occasionally it will stay on for the entire transmission but that is only happened a couple times. Most of the time it’s 2 seconds or less and it moves on. The audio is crisp and clear and on digital it’s exceptionally great. It’s loud enough that even with road noise you’ll be able to hear it. The GPS unit locks on pretty quickly. The CB side of this combo works great! Good RX and TX. I have no problem following the chatter on the interstate and no problem being heard. The BTW works pretty good too. It can be pretty active in an urban environment but it works. If you want a simple unit for your vehicle that picks up all the action without having to program or edit anything this will fit the bill. IF you want to be able to tweak what you hear (other than being able to select between one or all of police, fire, EMS and DOT) then this is NOT the unit for you. For me, I like the fact that I have been able to keep my 436 with me and not have to keep installing/uninstalling it in the car. Overall I’m very happy with my purchase and can’t wait to take it on a 3000 mike road trip Friday!

This unit will not work properly no matter what I do. Updated, support, antennae changes among other things, the unit I have has not worked at all.

Love having a CB and scanner at the same time. Yes downfall is you need two antenna but that's obvious. GPS antenna as well, goes on dash. Updates everywhere you go automatically. Void bad channels by 1 click of a button. Recommended for 1 unit in vehicle and no need to have seperate scanner as well.

nice unit

Works great love it , unfortunately most drivers don’t use CB’s anymore . Such a good tool but becoming a forgotten tool .

Easy to tune. Picks up some police fire medics dot.

Really enjoy the easy installation and operation of this unit. Uniden has really outdone themselves this time with this model. The SD card and updating feature is a must for anyone not wanting to constantly refer to frequency guides to determine what frequencies they want to program into a radio. This unit provides a self programming action that comes across flawlessly. Great work UNIDEN!

Purchased an actual antenna and picked up signals where I didn’t think I could. You can’t hear certain radio as they’re encrypted and can’t access it by law (Canada anyways) other then that it’s a great cb, compared to my old one everything has increased drastically, which I love.
