I also have the 545 with the extended freq range option/scanner.
Works just fine, But VERY slow as a scanner.
Strongly recommend to get it without, and buy one of the new Uniden scanners
instead with the saved $.

Agreed. While the 545 w/converter has decent VHF/UHF reception, the scanning
speed and functions are nowhere near as good as a "real" scanner (like Uniden
Bearcat, etc.). I like to use my 545 for FM broadcast DX and sometimes it's
just fun to slowly tune around VHF/UHF and see what pops up. It's also good for
monitoring a favorite police or fire frequency, but you would get frustrated if
you tried to use it like a regular scanner.
