About this deal

Control Channel Only Scanning – With Motorola trunking frequencies, you do not have to program voice channel frequencies. Broadcast Screen - ignore hits on 10 custom frequency ranges during Close Call or search operation. Adjustable Scan/Search Delay/Resume – Set a delay up to 30 seconds or a forced resume up to 10 seconds for each channel or search.

Allows you to organize your Systems into Favorites Lists. The scanner will scan multiple Favorites Lists and Full Database at the same time.

Frequency AutoStore - automatically store frequencies from a service or limit search into a conventional system Searches a range of frequencies to find unknown radio traffic and automatically records audio from and logs new channels for later review.

To receive civilian aircraft transmissions you will need a scanner that has a frequency range of 108-137Mhz. If you want to listen to military aircraft transmissions then you will need a scanner that has a frequency range of 225-400MHz. You should also set the scanner to the AM mode (Amplitude Modulation). Red Dragon wrote:I'm told the 3600XLT is "over complex", and basically looks to have all the bells and whistles, where you can programme the frequencies onto a memory card (not sure what type) and insert it into the scanner. Radioreference conventional and trunk system imports thru Sentinel (Radioreference import requires an additional subscription and is Intermediate Frequency Exchange – Changes the IF used for a selected channel/frequency to help avoid image and other mixer-product interference on a frequency. Analog and Digital AGC – Helps automatically balance the volume level between different radio systems.With this scanner you can program in your frequencies by connecting the scanner to a computer. Below is a freeware program which works with several Uniden scanners including the Bearcat UBC3500XLT. The software runs on Windows 2000, XP, Vista & Windows 7: Scans APCO 25 Phase 1 and Phase 2, DMR, Motorola, EDACS, EDACS ProVoice, LTR trunked systems. As well as conventional analog and P25 digital channels. The UBC3500XLT claims in its specifications to be able to deal with 6.25kHz steps although its frequency only gives four decimal places. To my knowledge, it is incapable of tuning exactly to 6.25kHz offset channels as for instance used with PMR446 radios although in practice, this does not affect the listening quality.

You can program the scanner to alert when you receive, a Channel or Unit ID, a Close Call hit, an ID is transmitted with an Emergency Alert, or a Tone-out hit. For each alert in the scanner, you can select from 9 different tone patterns, 15 volume settings, 7 colors (white, blue, red, yellow, magenta, green, cyan), and 2 flash patterns.

I'd be grateful to anyone that owns either of the above scanners (or even better, both of them!) if they'd give me some honest opinions. You can program each of your Favorites Lists with a Startup Key (0...9) so that when you power up the scanner and press the key number, just those Favorites Lists assigned to the key will be enabled for scan. It will take some effort to get all the scanner settings dialed in but I'm sure you will be able to do it if you first log all control channels and then all voice channels and their color codes and preferable also the system id and channel numbers. Duplicate Input Alert – Alerts you if you try to enter a duplicate name or frequency already stored in the scanner.

When using a scanner you can either use the 'Search' mode where it searches through a range of frequencies until it stops when it finds a transmission for you to listen to, or use the 'Scan' mode where you store specific frequencies into the scanner and it will just scan through these frequencies until it finds a transmission. I guess the other option is to look for a 2nd hand 3500XLT, or as you say the 125XLT. I haven't really looked at one of those before...

PC Programming – Use the Sentinel software to manage your scanners Profiles, Favorites Lists, and firmware updates. The 3500XLT is not particularly user friendly for inputting data, requiring constant turning of the selector knob to find alpha numerics. The easiest way is to take advantage of the ability to connect to your PC or Mac. Get a connection cable. Mine came with a serial port connector, so I had to add a serial/USB adaptor. This scanner can receive both civilian and military aircraft transmissions as well as receiving many more frequencies such as emergency, marine, amateur (ham radio) and other communications.
