Manufactured in China

• Digital Capable - APCO Project 25 Digital Capable. Not compatible with 9,600 baud APCO digital control channel with digital voice, AEGIS, ASTRO or ESAS systems. With the optional BCi25D APCO Project 25 Digital Card installed, you can monitor public safety organizations who currently use conventional, trunked at 3,600 baud analog control channel and digital voice and mixed mode APCO Project 25 systems.
• TrunkTracker III - Search for and monitor all the groups within a specific trunked system. Lockout unwanted groups during the search and save other groups to scan lists. (EDACS™, Motorola, E.F. Johnson). Follow VHF High Band, UHF 800/900 MHz trunked public safety and public service systems just as if conventional two-way communications were used.
• Multi-Track - Track more than one trunking system at a time. Scan conventional and trunked systems at the same time.
• 1,000 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.
• Continuous Band Coverage (25 MHz TO 1.3 GHz) - Allows coverage from virtually every frequency from 25 MHz to 1.3 GHz excluding the cellular bands and UHF TV band, so you can tune into police, fire, weather, ambulance, aircraft, military, "Ham" radio and much more.
• 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.
• 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 talk groups. When Priority Scan is turned On, your scanner checks the priority channel in the banks you selected every 2 seconds for activity. If a signal is present on the priority channel, your scanner monitors the channel until the transmission ends, then resumes normal scanning. You can designate one channel in each bank as a Priority Channel. By default, the first channel in each bank is the Priority Channel, but you can change this setting.
• Priority Plus Scan - Allows you to scan only priority channels.
• Preprogrammed Service Searches (10) - This feature allows you to toggle through preprogrammed public safety, news media TV broadcast audio, Amateur (ham) radio, CB radio, Family Radio Service, 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 - Jump directly to any channel without stepping through other channels or entering menu mode.
• RF Attenuator - The BC785D comes with an RF Attenuation feature. If you are near an unusually strong signal source, the signal may overload the scanner. The RF Attenuation features works in all modes and attenuates (reduces) the incoming signal strength to prevent stronger signals from overloading the scanner.
• PC Programmable - This feature allows the user to remotely program and control the scanner using third party software (available from www.usascan.com). Optional baud rates include 2400, 4800, 9600 (default) and 19200 operating through the scanner's DB-9 RS-232C port.
• Turbo Search - Increases the search speed to 300 steps per second when searching transmission bands with 5 KHz steps.
• Turbo Scan - This lightning fast technology allows you to scan and search nearly 100 channels or steps per second.
• Auto Store - The BC785D can automatically store any found active frequencies into an assigned bank.
• CTCSS/DCS - This feature allows the user to assign analog and digital subaudible tone codes to a specific frequency in memory. The scanner will also search for unknown CTCSS and DCS tones.
• National Weather Radio - Can be programmed to receive special localized weather warnings broadcast by NOAA. The scanner is compatible with warning siren and message transmissions.
• Specific Area Message Encoding (S.A.M.E.) weather alert - S.A.M.E. is NOAA’s coded emergency weather signals that identify a specific geographic area affected by an emergency. In weather alert with S.A.M.E. mode, your scanner functions as a county specific severe weather warning radio. To obtain further information about S.A.M.E. and FIPS code, visit http://www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/index.html.
• FIPS Code - This feature allows you to input a six-digit code Federal Information Processing System (FIPS) code that will designate a localized severe weather warning. The BC785D can decode the 6-digit FIPS code established by the National Weather Service (NWS). This FIPS code identifies geographic areas anywhere in the United States, US territories and US possessions. Programming the FIPS code is necessary to receive S.A.M.E. alerts about weather occurring in a particular area. To obtain a FIPS code for your area, call the National Weather Service toll free at 1-888-697-7263 or visit http://205.156.54.206/nwr/nwrsame.htm.
• Dimmer - Allows you to change the brightness of the display.
• Enter Lock - Allows you to lockout the keypad to prevent reprogramming of channels, talkgroups and tones.
• Key Beep Option - Allows you to turn the key beep on or off.
• Screen Mask - Screen Mask allows you to limit what appears on the display to the alpha tags that you have set for a channel along with a few function icons. Screen Mask removes the frequency, receiving mode tone data and signal strength bars. This mode is particularly useful in public safety vehicles where "information overload" is already a problem. Screen Mask does not work in Search mode.
• Reverse Mode - This key will allow you to observe the reverse frequency of the repeater. While pressing "RVRS", the standard repeater pair frequency will be displayed.
• Channel Step Selection - You can set channel steps, 5 kHz to 100 kHz or Auto, in conventional mode or chain search mode. The default receive mode should be the proper mode setting in almost all cases. You may wish to set some VHF channels for NFM mode, depending on any adjacent channel interference problems. WFM is typically used for broadcast frequencies such as TV audio or FM radio.
• Mute On/Off - Allows you to manually turn the mute function on or off.
• Receiving Mode Selection - You can set the receiving mode, AM or FM in conventional mode or chain search mode.
• Duplicate Frequency Alert - If you enter a frequency which has been stored in another channel, you will hear a beep and the channel stored displays a duplicate warning message.
• 2 Line Alpha Display - You can customize your scanner by storing text tags for easy identification of banks, channel transmission, trunking talk group ID and more. Allows for alpha tagging display of channel, bank or search range.
• Control Channel Only Mode - Allows the user to automatically trunk certain systems by simply programming the control channel.
• Backlit Full-Frequency Display - Shows the channels being scanned and the frequency entered into each channel with an easy-to-read backlit display for enhanced night visibility.
• Clone Feature - Allows for cloning of another scanner's programmed frequencies. (The two scanner's must be connected by a cloning cable for the cloning process to take place.)
• Alpha Tagging - Allows the user to assign an alpha description to each channel, trunking talk group and bank.
• Beep Alert - You can set a Beep Alert on a per-channel basis to alert you when specific frequencies are active. For example, you may wish to be alerted anytime a mutual aid fire frequency is active. With beep alert, you will hear three
  beeps at the start of each transmission that you have flagged as such. You will also notice that as you scroll pass the flagged channel(s), you will hear three beeps.
• Record Function - Allows the user to designate a channel to be recorded by an external device. The user will be able to select between ON and OFF. The default setting is OFF. An icon will appear in the LCD when a channel has been assigned the record feature (requires an external recording device.)
• VFO Control - Allows the user to tune through frequencies, channels, alpha characters and more with the handy VFO tuning knob.
• Menu-Driven Design - This function allows advanced programming and control operation through the easy-to-use menu system.
• Frequency Delay Selection - A default delay of 2 seconds is automatically set for each frequency or talk group A different delay can be set for each programmed channel so that when scan or search stops on a channel there is a brief pause before the scanning cycle resumes. To set the delay feature, enter into the menu mode.
• Negative Delay Selection - Setting negative delay periods are useful if you are only interested in small segments of conversations. For example: If you set a -5 second delay, you will only hear 5 seconds of the conversation and then the scanner will resume scanning, whether or not the conversation is finished.
• Total Channel Control - Allows the user to program delay, step, mode (adjustable) priority, attenuation and more on a per-channel basis.
• Chain search mode - When the scanner finds an active frequency, the trunk tracking system will be active. Four frequency
  plans apply to the Control Channel Only feature
• Trunk Search - Search for and monitor all the groups within a trunked system. Lockout unwanted groups during the search and save other groups to scan lists.
• Trunk Lockout - Lockout groups you don't wish to monitor, (including data groups) from the trunked system.
• Trunk Delay - Apply a five second delay to trunking groups so that both sides of a conversation can be heard, even if the trunking frequencies change between replies.
• One Touch Weather - Automatically scans all national weather channels with a single touch.
  
• Turbo Scan - This lightning fast technology allows you to scan and search nearly 100 channels or steps per second.
• Memory Backup - Retains frequencies entered for more than 3 days without batteries or during a power failure.
• Programmable Search - Allows you to find new frequencies in any of the bands.
• Manual Channel Access - Go directly to any channels without stepping through other channels.
