Introduction
The BC250D is a state-of-the-art Digital Capable radio with
TrunkTracker III and automatic scanning capabilities. It can
store frequencies such as police, fire/emergency, marine,
railroad, air, amateur, and other communications into 10
banks of 100 channels for a total of 1000 channels.
With the optional BCi25D, APCO-P25 Digital Card installed
you can monitor Public Safety Organizations who currently
use Conventional, Trunked at 3600 and Mixed Mode APCO
25 systems.
Use your new scanner to monitor:
• Police and Fire Departments (including rescue and
paramedics)
Trunked for:

Important Notice
This scanning radio has been manufactured so that it will
not tune radio frequencies assigned by the FCC for cellular
telephone usage. The Electronic Communications Privacy
Act of 1986, as amended, makes it a federal crime to
intentionally intercept cellular or cordless telephone
transmissions or to market this radio when altered to
receive them.
The installation, possession, or use of this scanning radio in
a motor vehicle may be prohibited, regulated, or require a
permit in certain states, cities, and/or local jurisdictions.
Your local law enforcement officials should be able to
provide you with information regarding the laws in your
community.
Changes or modifications to this product are strictly
prohibited, or operation of this product in any way other
than as detailed by this Owner's manual. Could void your
authority to operate this product.
The screen displays used in this manual are
representations of what might appear when you use your
scanner.

Terminology
What is Scanning?
Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way
communications do not transmit continuously. The BC250D
scans the Frequencies you have programmed into the
Scanners channels until it finds an active frequency.
Scanning stops on an active frequency and remains on that
channel as long as the transmission continues. When the
transmission ends, the scanning cycle resumes until another
transmission is received.
What is Searching?
The BC250D can search each of its 27 bands to find active
frequencies. This is different from scanning because you are
searching for frequencies that have not been programmed
into your Scanners channels. The scanner automatically
chooses between two speeds while searching. Turbo Search,
can search the VHF FM bands at up to 300 steps per second.
What is Trunk Tracking?
Conventional scanning is a simple concept. You enter a radio
frequency in your scanners memory which is used by
someone you want to monitor. For example, the police in your
area may broadcast on 460.500 MHz, the fire department on
154.445 MHz, the highway department on 37.900 MHz, etc.
So when your scanner stops on a frequency, you usually
know who it is, and more importantly, you can stop on a
channel and listen to an entire conversation. This type of
scanning is easy and fun.
As the demand for public communications has increased,
many public radio users don't have enough frequencies to
meet their needs, and this has created a serious problem.
Trunking radio systems solve this problem.
In a trunked radio system, which contains up to 28 different
frequencies, radio users are divided into groups, often called
talkgroups, and these talkgroups are assigned specific IDs.
When someone in a talkgroup uses their radio, a brief burst
of data is broadcasted before each transmission. The trunking
system computer uses this data to temporarily assign each
radio in a talkgroup to an available frequency. If the group
using a frequency stops broadcasting or pauses between
replies for a few seconds, they are removed from the

Feature Highlights
Trunk Tracking Follow VHF High Band UHF
800/900MHz trunked public safety and public service
systems just as if conventional two-way communications
were used.
Digital Capable With the APCO 25 Digital card (BCi25D)
installed, you can monitor supported project 25 systems.
Multi-Track Track more than one trunking system
at a time. Scan conventional and trunked systems at the
same time.
1000 Channels Program one frequency into each
channel. You must have at least one channel programmed
to use the Scan mode.
27 Bands Includes 27 bands, with aircraft and 800 MHz.
10 Banks 10 banks with 100 channels each are useful for
storing similar frequencies to maintain faster scanning
cycles or for storing all the frequencies of a trunked system.
25 MHz-1300 MHz Indicates the range of frequencies that
can be searched within the bands of your scanner.
Note: The frequency coverage is not continuous and
excludes the cellular band, 512-806MHz.
10 Priority Channels You can assign one priority
channel in each bank. Assigning a priority channel allows
you to keep track of activity on your most important
channel(s) while monitoring other channels for
transmissions. You can also assign Trunking priority
Talkgroups.
Priority Plus Scan Allows you to scan only priority
channels.
Preprogrammed Service Search Allows you to toggle
through preprogrammed public safety, news media, TV
broadcast audio, Ham, CB, FRS, special low power,
railroad, aircraft, marine, racing, and weather frequencies.
Unique Data Skip Allows your scanner to skip unwanted
data transmissions and reduces birdies.
Memory Backup If power is disconnected, the
frequencies programmed in your scanner are retained
in memory.
Direct Channel Access Go directly to any channel
without entering the Menu mode.
Attenuator Reduces the signal strength on a per
frequency basis.
BC250D 11/6/2 11:36 AM Page 9
PC Programmable Allows you to easily program all
frequencies and Trunking Talk Groups into your BC250D
through Unidens E-Scanner software running on your PC.
For more information on E-Scanner Programming
software visit our website at scanner.uniden.com.
Turbo Search Increases the search speed to 300 steps
per second. This applies only to transmission bands with
5 kHz steps.
Text Tags You can customize your scanner by storing
text tags (up to 16 characters).
Auto Store The scanner automatically stores found active
frequencies into an assigned bank.
CTCSS/DCS The scanner can receive and search for
subaudible tones.
NWR-SAME Alert The scanner is compatible with
warning siren and message transmissions.
FIPS Code Six digit FIPS Code (emergency and
geographic area code) programmable.
LCD Back-Light LCD illuminates when you press the
Light/Lock ( ) key. You can select the lighting length
of time in the Menu mode.
Battery Save In Scan Hold mode and no transmission,
your scanner automatically reduces its power requirements
to extend the battery life.
