Is there a video on how to manually program the bearcat scanner BC355C 100 channel to put in my area frequency into the scanner?

Try this link to the actual manual; http://www.uniden.com/content/ebiz/uniden/resources/ownersmanuals/BC860XLTom.pdf

Did you change the squelch while the scanner stops? even what looks like noise, can stop the scanner from going to the next frequency.

Turn on the radio
Press the "band" button
Keep pressing the "band" button until you come within the parameters of the frequency that you want
Let the radio scan until it gets close to the actual frequency that you're looking for
Press the "hold" button and use the arrow "up" or "down" button till you lock in the correct frequency
Once you have the frequency locked in, press the "program" button
Press the "private" button
The unused channel will be flashing
Press the "program" button, this locks the frequency into that channel
Continue this process until all of the frequencies are loaded into the radio

Programming the BC148XLT is pretty straight forward:
1. Power the scanner ON.
2. Press MANUAL to stop scanning.
3. Enter the number of the channel to be programmed.
4. Press MANUAL again.
5. Enter the frequency, including decimal point (ex: 250.145).
6. Press E to enter the data into memory.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 to program remaining channels.

More detailed information can be found in the scanner's operating manual, which you can download/print here:

I can't find the manual for that model, but here's how to program it:

- Press MANUAL
- Enter the frequency to be programmed, including the decimal (example 156.25)

If your scanner is the BC350C (the section you posted in), here's a link to the owner's manual which will give you detailed programming information:

If you have a different model Bearcat scanner, try:

1. Push MANUAL to stop scanning and advance to the channel that you want to program.

2. Enter the desired frequency, including the decimal point (e.g., 156.015).

3. Press E or ENTER to set the frequency.

4. Repeat the process, starting with 1 above to select the channel.

NOTE: With some Bearcat scanners you may need to press the E or ENTER key before entering your frequency.

These are general steps that work on most recent Bearcat models. If they don't work on yours, try different variations. You can also check Uniden.com -- they may have an online manual that you can download and print.

If it's indeed a BC-100 and not a BC-100xlt, the 16 channels are easy to program and use.
1. Press MANUAL 3 MANUAL with 3 being the number of the channel you wish to program.
2. Enter the frequency for that channel (e.g., 162.55) followed by ENTER.
3. Follow the same sequence for each channel you wish to program, except that pressing MANUAL after you program a channel will advance the scanner to the next channel.

To scan, simply press the SCAN button after your frequencies are programmed.
