I didn't get the card .. I don't know if I need
the digital features yet. It was my understanding
that at some time in the future, it could prove a
good thing to have.

As far as the modifying. Are you saying NO that
these cannot be modified ? If so .. just curious
... why ? Does it have to do with the digital or
?? It isn't high on my list of priorities. But as
I get older I become more and more of a busy body
...

Any way .. I needed trunking .. and I thought
that someday I **might** need digital and figured,
may as well get it now rather than need to buy
another one .. I might never need it .. IN FACT ..
so far I am clueless as to it's purpose.

| Well first off the answer is no when it comes to
modding the radio for
| cell. Next thing is, did you get the digital
card to go with the radio?
| If not then you wont be able to use the digital
features of the radio.
| You should have went for the BC296 or the PRO-96
if you wanted digital
| capabilities.

| Hi, I guess I will be the new kid on the
| block for a while. Just bought on ebay a
| Uniden BC250D ... used indoors for a week for
| $230. I think I made a good purchase. ANY
| WAY ...
|
| I am not completely new to scanners. Had
| one, several times in the past, but now
| things are changing .. there is this trunking
| going on. And then software for the
| scanners, to load saved stations I think ...
| and then digital .. NOT ONLY THAT .. but my
| cellphone stuff has been removed, before I
| learned how to modify them. Can you even
| modify scanners if they are digital ?? Or if
| they have digital capabilities do I need them
| ??
|
| I am a gadget nut, so I had to have the
| digital .. had to have the software capable
| ... I do think the trunking was necessary,
| but the rest ?? I don't know. ALSO, liked
| the color of the display .. actually I have
| only seen one picture of the scanner, it
| hasn't been shipped to me yet. I am like a
| kid at Christmas.
|
| Any help or pointers would be greatly
| appreciated. Or if you are a rambler or a
| bragger or want to tell me what a great
| choice I made, I would love to hear it all.
| BY THE WAY ... I am in Deltona, Florida ..
| Volusia County. Guess mostly I need to find
| the software ?? Or do I need a card first ?
| and if someone is from around here and would
| like to modify the scanner for me .. I would
| sure appreciate it.
|
| Basically .. I am on the computer day and
| night and not much of a TV watcher. Used to
| listen to my old beat up scanner while I
| worked on the computer - I design websites.
| Then one day, this goes way back .. they
| started the trunking thing .. . I never
| invested in another one until today. First I
| looked at everyone I could find but decided
| on this .. I HOPE I DIDN'T MAKE A MISTAKE. I
| should have checked here first maybe .. but I
| am impulsive.
