    Your local law enforcement officials should be able to provide you with information regarding the laws in your community. • Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Uniden, or operation of this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating Guide. These violations could void your authority to operate this product.
  • Page 10 What is Searching? The BC780XLT can search each of its 24 bands to find active frequencies. This is different from scanning because you are searching for frequencies that have not been programmed into your scanner. The scanner automatically chooses between two speeds while searching.
  • Page 11 5:02 PM Page 3 TrunkTrack™ changes this! Not only does your new BC780XLT scan channels like a conventional scanner, it actually follows the users of a trunked radio system. Once you know a talkgroups ID, you won’t miss any of the action.
