My uniden bearcat 50 channel 800mhz stop the police,fire ect.. and only gives me weather.. why? can you help ?

Without knowing the frequencies, it is hard to diagnose. If you are trying to listen to police, fire, govt freguencies, the transmissions are scrambled or use split multiple frequencies. You will not be able to receive any voice without the key. If channel jumping is used, you will only hear a veryquick burst of audeo if you are lucky enough to be listening to the correct fequency asthe signal travels by onto the next frequency.

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

You use to be able to go to Radio Shack and they would give you a sheet of the codes for free and their meanings. But i don't know if they still do it for free or not.

The BC60XLT frequency coverage ends at the 512MHZ band. It is not capable of receiving signals in the 800MHz band. For more information you can download and print the factory manual here:

Listening in since the 60's

You BC350A provides coverage of popular bands between 29 and 512MHz, so it is not capable of receiving signals in the 800MHz range. Sorry, but you'll need a different scanner to follow the action.
