Nice! January 21, 2017 Reviewer: David Goodnough from Livingston County, NY United States   Bought this due to the county changing over to a new TDMA Motorola Type 2 system. Glad I got it when I did! The old scanner went silent. This is my 2nd digital scanner but my first Type 2. It is doing a great job so far and have no complaints. The P2 is a great quality scanner with great audio on the new system. If you are new to scanners or are learning how to use and program these DMA scanners, be patient as it is different from older direct program type scanners from the old days. There is a wealth of information on the Radioreference pages in the wiki section as well as other users in the discussion forums. In all, this is and excellent scanner and a must if you live in a location where a type 2 system is used. This is my 2nd scanner purchase from ScannerMaster and I have have no issues with them each time. Was this review helpful to you?

996 phase two police scanner May 3, 2016 Reviewer: Dwayne McNutt from Hiltons , VA United States   I have had this scanner for a few weeks now and I love it. I had several scanners before this one but some of the counties close to me had gone to a knew radio system which required me to get this scanner. I love the scanner and I am glad I finally found the one for me. When you are blind you have to take certain things in to consideration such as will I be able to tell one button from another? The only thing is not knowing if there is accessible software that will work with a screen reader in order for me to update the frequencies and firmware so for now I sent it back to Scannermaster whenever a frequency changes. Greg Jolly is the best. Extremely patient. Was this review helpful to you?

Uniden BCD996P2 Scanner December 26, 2015 Reviewer: Robert Young from Buda, TX United States   I am pleased with my Uniden BCD996P2 Trunk Tracker 5 Scanner  and the Scanner Master P-25 programing.  The Scanner is very much like my old but "beloved" BCT 15X Trunk Tracker 3 scanner.  A real work horse with a wonderful color display and easy to read large screen.

BCD992P2 December 19, 2015 Reviewer: Patrick Spencer from Sunnyvale, CA United States   The BCD992P2 is difficult to program unless you have a computer program which is also lacking.  Once you get it programed it's great.  The manual is very difficult to use.  The author needs to hand the manual to someone that has never used the scanner and see if they can program the scanner.

Great scanner. You need programming software September 18, 2015 Reviewer: David Levy from Fort Washington, PA United States   This is a great scanner.  However, you absolutely need programming software; I recommend ARCXT Pro. I also recommend spending the extra money and have the fine folks at Scannermaster (SM) program your radio. Yea sure you can download the files from radioreferance.com manually, but life is too short.  Having SM initially program the scanner reduces stress.  You can then use the programming software to "refine" that initial load. The enclosed telescoping antenna works surprising well in my environment The only issue is that there is no folding front kick stand to elevate the front of the scanner for a base station configuration. I did not get the license code for my software at the time of purchase, but the tech help was excellent; they were able to resend the code in minutes.   Was this review helpful to you?
