Fantastic choice if you need a handheld P25 Phase II scanner
There are not a lot of choices out there for P25 Phase II handheld scanners, but when I decided to get back into the hobby and discovered my old Radio Shack Pro-94 could no longer pickup most of the transmissions in my area, most of what I wanted to monitor had moved to P25, it was time to invest in a new scanner.One of the major groups I wanted to monitor used P25 Phase II, which greatly limited my choices for scanners, there are not a lot of scanners in this space that were not terribly expensive. After a bit of research I chose the BCD325P2, as a good mid-range P25 Phase II capable scanner.Many reviews state this scanner is nearly impossible to program, I have to disagree. If you are more familiar with the older bank-style programming, then yes, it is different and you do have to think differently when programming this scanner, but once you wrap your head around the System/Site/Group/Channel hierarchy this scanner uses, it is actually not bad at all to program it. It took me less than half an hour to enter the two major trunking systems in my area, that consisted of 4 sites with about 200 channels that I split into about 8 groups, and this was programming it by hand, not using a computer. So if you take the time to understand its method of storing systems, then you will not have any issue programming this. Yes, it has more steps to program than the Pro-94 I had before, but the flow of it is pretty easy once you understand it. So my advice is to understand the methodology of this scanner before trying to program it, you will have an easier time.The screen is crisp and easy to read in good lighting, or in darker lighting by using its backlight. the buttons all have nice solid tactile feedback as well as key beeps, you absolutely know when you have hit a button. For such a small unit, its built-in speaker was plenty loud enough for me, it does have a earphone jack for either private listening or listening in a noisier environment.The only real downside of this scanner is it chews through batteries. It uses two AA batteries, and with good alkaline batteries will last 6 to 8 hours. I would highly recommend using rechargeable batteries in this unit. It does come with two NIMH rechargeable batteries, but they are mediocre quality, I would buy a couple sets of good ones and then charge them overnight and you should get a good days listening with 2 to 3 sets that you charged overnight.The manual is pretty cryptic if you are not really familiar with scanning and the technology this scanner uses, it does pretty much cover everything, but not in the most logical way, I would say it is not written for the beginner. There are some good resources you can find online that will help you get going with this scanner.If you are looking for a good P25 Phase II handheld scanner, this unit would be very hard to beat at its price point. If you are willing to put in the effort to understand this scanner, then you will get a lot out of it.

Tuning Into Simplicity
Programming this scanner was easy as 1-2-3!watched the YouTube video by Odds and Ends (formerly KD8GY) titled “Programming a Uniden BCD325P2 (FreeSCAN)” and let me tell you, that video was loud and clear!After a quick download of the FreeSCAN program and a little time getting my frequencies straight, I was on the same wavelength as the pros. I even tuned into RadioReference, signed up, and paid the small feehands down the best $15 I’ve ever transmitted! It saved me countless hours of static and frustration.Now my scanner’s buzzing with all the channels I want crisp, clear, and on frequency! If you’re on the fence about programming your own, don’t tune out this setup is pure signal, no noise.P.S Thank You reviewer David.Update***** 5 days later 10/10/2025This scanner went from “pretty cool gadget” to “absolutely amazing” once I took the time to learn some of its basic functions. It’s like tuning in from static to symphony!I’m already planning a few upgrades got my eye on the Remtronix REM-843B and REM-920B antennas. Plus, I’m adding a Tram 1089-BNC magnet mount for the car so I can scan on the go (because who doesn’t want to feel like a mobile command center while stuck in traffic?Coming from someone whose previous radio experience was limited to walkie-talkies with a whopping one-mile range ha I can say this: patience and a little learning go a long way. Once you start catching clear signals, you’ll be hooked faster than a ham operator on Field Day.Update 10/28/2025Let’s start with the Tram 1089-BNC Scanner Mini-Magnet cute little thing, looks like it came straight out of an RC car set. It’s fun, it’s tiny, and it tries its best… but sadly, in my area, it’s more “hide and static” than “seek and signal.” Great for decoration, not so much for reception.Now, the Tram 1094-BNC chef’s kiss. This one pulls in signals so clear you’d think it bribed the airwaves. It’s my absolute go-to for vehicle setups with the BCD825P2. Hook it up, and suddenly you’re hearing everything from weather alerts to the neighbor’s garage door opener (okay, maybe not that last one).When I’m on the move, the Remtronix REM-843B takes the spotlight. It’s compact, reliable, and makes my portable setup feel like it’s running on pure RF magic.Vehicle Setup: Tram 1094-BNCHandheld Setup: Remtronix REM-843BIf antennas had a talent show, the 1094 would win “Best in Reception,” the Remtronix would get “Most Portable Personality,” and the 1089… well, “Best Dressed.”

This scanner is great! It’s small and easy to carry. You must buy keys from Uniden to unlock DMR and NXDN reception but P25 is already included. I would give it five stars if it weren’t for the extremely short battery life you get with the two AAs it needs.Included with the scanner is a set of two 2300 Nimh but they cannot be charged while using the scanner. The unit must be off to charge the batteries. You could always use a standard USB port to power the scanner, but it’s not always practical. These will provide about 5 hours of use when fully charged.With good alkaline batteries, you get about 3-4 hours of use. With Amazon alkalines, you barely get 2 hours. If you buy 2500 mAh Nimh rechargeables, you will get a more decent 6-7 hours. I bought a set of 8 EBL batteries and charger and I just keep a spare set with me when I’m away from home.Another thing to note is that this scanner isn’t easy to program. You will be well advised to use a third party program like ProScan to enter the frequencies as Uniden doesn’t provide one, which is weird.. There’s a lot of learning to do before you can enter and listen to P25, DMR and NXDN systems. This is what is called a « clean slate » scanner which means that, out of the box, it has nothing pre-programmed.
