don't put that scanner in your car or you can face time, in nyc scanners are illegal in cars unless your PD/FD or auxiliary PD of volly firefighters or people who have a permit from chief of police ie. media.
but however don't walk around in the streets with your scanner on and if you are a felon your scanner can be taken away. you can have it at home or at work but not in your car.
I never PC programmed anything. I usually just listened to my local city PD. But if you do get one I suggest you do everything manually for a while so you're not dependent on a computer.
The dynamic memory was great. The only thing I have to say about the 396T is that the reception is...nothing compared to a GRE unit. If you want a great Uniden receiver with reception I highly recommend the BR330T, trunks all types of Analog, a lot more sensitive, and has a wider range for searching.
can you help me for some reason i can't pick up some nypd frequencies and i live in nyc...lol. i have a pro-82 and pro-97. i have a magnet mount and a center whip antenna but still no help.
do you think a base scanner will help, i thinking about buying a radioshack pro-163 base scanner.
cool stuff, does it give you problems going back and forth between uniden and gre? Or do you pc program everything? I think I'm going to pick up a 396T next time I'm in town, I've heard the dynamic memory makes all the difference, so you're not wasting all those memory channels.
Nice collection, dude. I love scanners and radios

Scanners are illegal in NYC if they have police (as far as I know its only police, maybe EMS) programmed into them.
