How to enter codes on uniden bc60xlt handheld?

Hi, first, you can only listen to analog radios on this scanner, so if you local or state public servants went to digital, you are out of luck. You can still receive National Weather Service, most railroads, ham radio operators and any small town police and fire that have remained on analog VHF and UHF. Do a Google search and you can get the instruction book for the radio. As far as channels, search for Radio Reference dot com and search for your state and county. That will list the channels to enter into your radio. Good luck and have fun.

Is there buttons i can press to reset my scanner

Even if your scanner can manage to receive the frequencies, you would not be able to hear what people are saying. only the first generations of cell phones were analog and you could hear on side of the connection. Today all pone communication is digital, encrypted and you only can receive a phone close enough to you, to hear just a rattling noise. Modern phones are working close to and above 2 Ghz. A frequency, most scanners can't receive.

I am a shopkeeper and looking for such device which can show me customer's phone number when they enter my shop without asking them? i just want to send them Thank's message! Please let me know if pos

You've got a great idea for a great invention, but that would probably be a privacy violation unless they called you and you could use their caller ID. Sorry about that. Scotty

DC to AC power cord Do they still make them if so under what name or product name?

"DC to AC" cords are not really a common item. They are called "Inverters". Typical inverters are 12VDC to 120VAC and are found in mobile applications to operate houshold current type (120VAC) devices. Inverters cost many times more than thier "AC to DC" or "AC to AC" sisters.An "AC to DC" and "AC to AC" cord however, is a very common item. They are usually called simply "AC Adapters" and are sold in many electronics stores (Best Buy, Fry's, etc.) and electronic specialty stores (Radio Shack) and electrnics suppliers (MCM, etc.) Nearly all of them are designed to reduce the voltage in your home (120 VAC volts alternating current) to a different but usually lower voltage that is either AC or DC.In order to select the proper AC adapter, you need to know:(1) Input Voltage - this is the outlet voltage - often 120 volts in N. America, (2) Output voltage - this is the voltage the device needs and is often indicated near the jack, The adapted must match this voltage. (3) the device voltage type - this will be either AC or DC. The adapter must match the type as they are NOT interchangeable. (4) the size and type plug on the cord that will allow it to mate properly with the jack. There are many, many types and it should be tested for fit prior to plugging in and must match the device jack (5) the power requirements - this is usually shown as a number in Watts (w) and / or Amps (a). It is very important that the apdapter power rating is equal to or greater than the amount specified by the device. Failure to meet the requirements above can cause failure of the device, adapter or both. I hope this helps and good luck!

Do I need to upgrade my Uniden Bear-Car BC 60XLT-1 30 channel programmalbe handheld scanner from analog to digital? We cannot listen to the NASCAR radios any more? We were told we needed to go digital

NASCAR radios are not digital & besides, your scanner can't be upgraded. Try programming your local NOAA weather frequency. If you can't hear it, your scanner is not functioning properly & it's doubtful that it would be worth the cost of repairing it.

Can't unlock channels they are all showing l/o.

If you see the lettersL/O << looks like that press the lock out key the those letters "L/O" ShouldDisapear.. Keep doing those steps untill all channels a clear.. I say this because this is how my Uniden 30 channel hand held works.. Yours may work diffrent? Hopefully it works the same.

All my codes are gone when i change my battery how

  • Well if the frequencies are gone then you have to reprogram them in, which is not to hard to do. If you tell me where you live ie. State, City or Zip Code and which type of frequencies you are wanting I can get them for you.
