The Uniden Bearcat BC365CRS Police Scanner is a versatile desktop police scanner and alarm clock radio designed for listeners who want local radio communications and everyday bedside convenience in one compact unit. It lets you monitor police, fire, EMS, weather, marine, and other analog radio channels while also functioning as a reliable AM/FM clock radio.

Ideal for home users, preparedness-minded listeners, and anyone who prefers a simple plug-in scanner, the BC365CRS offers clear audio, easy front-panel controls, and a large display that is simple to read day or night. Its desktop design makes it a strong choice for a kitchen counter, office, workshop, or bedside table where portability is less important than convenience and steady performance.

Programming is a great option for first-time scanner buyers, gift purchases, or anyone who prefers a simple plug-and-play setup. Just provide your location details during checkout, and our team will handle the setup before shipment.

Order the scanner alone, or build your own package with discounted accessories for additional savings and HomeTown Programming to have the scanner professionally programmed so it's ready to use right out of the box. If you choose Hometown Programming we will program the county where the scanner is being shipped to unless you note otherwise in the Comments section on the Checkout Page. Note: This is an excellent basic scanner which has no trunking or digital capabilities. In areas with basic/analog radio systems it's a good choice. If you're not sure if your area has basic police and fire radio systems or not, check our Compare Scanners page.
