5 out of 5 stars Amazing full-featured Scanner!   February 14, 2010

I've owned scanners since the mid-'70s and this little beast is the finest one I've ever owned, hands down. It has more features than I'll ever use (or comprehend), but it's tidy, compact form factor, superlative audio, and superb built quality puts it in a class all its own.

If you decide to get one, please do yourself a huge favor and get a decent USB programming cable...yes, a serial cable comes packed with the rest of the goodies, but how many people have access to serial ports on their computers these days? Don't toss the serial cable, with the optional GPS rig and a null modem, you can enjoy GPS-enabled scanning wherever you go!

And there are several excellent programming programs available; I use Freescan which makes programming ridiculously easy, especially if you subscribe to a site like radioreference...programming digital modes is a cake walk.

Yes, I am delighted with my 396XT and have become a 'true believer' .

Thanks for reading!

4 out of 5 stars Works great, nice features   February 5, 2010

You will find this scanner hard to use if:
1. You don't know how to use a computer
2. You don't use freescan software
3. You don't know what trunking is and APCO-25

If you do know 1,2, and 3 then the scanner works great, as advertised! I listen to 2 trunked system, one analog the other APCO-25. I figured scanning between 2 systems let alone APCO-25 would be bad but it's quick and very usable. Some forward thinking needs to be done on how you want to program systems and talk groups. Once you have a plan, try it out using freescan.
