RE: False Positives

Hey Scott,
I have a couple questions regarding your BCT12 because I almost bought one
online last nite. I know the unit is pre-programmed with police frequencies
by state. But I also know that police agencies change the frequencies they
operate on on a regular basis, whether it be once a month or once a year.
Could you please tell me when your BCT12 sounds it alert, what exactly is it
alerting you to and at what range? Is it locking onto an active frequency or
the presence of an authorized vehicle that may not neccessarily be
transmitting at the time. Please help me in clarifying this because I
haven't been able to obtain exact info about this unit for some time now.
Thanx,

I have a Bear Tracker BCT12 that I bought from
uniden.com   It automatically scans a lot of Police channels, by State,
HP, Local Police, either or both.  It and my trusty old Escort saved me
at least twice when I went out to Death Valley to Tecopa to LV for CES.
The BCT has twice the range of my Scanner.  It was $145 plus five
Dollars to ship.  The BCT10 would probably be good enough AND they clip
easily to the ceiling.
