Service searches have been on uniden for many years so nothing new, and why did they take close call off and give a pointless band scope?

@@mpol701 The difference with this scanner is they split up the service into banks so you can drill down into sections of the band. As an example, the ham bands are separated. You can just scan 6m or 2M & 70cm. Or any combo you want. I don’t know why they didn’t separate FRS GMRS MURS into 3 banks though. Hopefully that will be changed in a firmware update. CC should have stayed. I have not used the band scope yet but I do find it very useful on my ham radios. The fire tone out search seems to be more accurate than past scanners.

@@joelhuntress6736 we get 160 in late summer uk Europe the bands service might be differant, but I don't use them much, but the close call is very useful, especially at airshows for discrete air to airs and airshow ops fm channels, though in uk agsi often sand freqs are used short term businesses and events allocations but, I cN go to event nr airshow atc and just watch everything from St John ambulance, security, stewards and anything else flash up on the radio, excellent, often freqs we knew, but other times new stuff

@@joelhuntress6736 we get fire tone out still on the eu uk models totally pointless for us p25 is ok on the sds as we have very limited use at usaf bases but most encryption but sonme clear

Also as well as service searches I presume theres still searches one can set lower and upper limit etc

That'd be interesting
