Look at the photos and ASK ME if there's any info you need that I haven't provided below. Uniden BCD436HP Scanner with stock antenna. Uniden Charger and Charging Cable for this unit. Physical (paper) owner's manual that came with the unit, complete with a small coffee stain on the front (see photos). Loaded with 3 fresh Energizer AA alkaline batteries.

ASK questions if you have'em, because. NOTE: I bought this new, but used it very little. It's an absolutely GREAT scanner for most communications systems in the covered bands, but the one thing it may have an issue with is SIMULCAST trunked systems (systems in which multiple base stations transmit the same voice or data signal on the same frequency at the same time). To properly receive those, depending on your distance from the base station sites, you may have to attenuate (weaken) the incoming signal by using an antenna with less gain. I live in an area covered by a simulcast system, but to my understanding, many or most trunked systems are not simulcast. It worked for me, but I wanted to use the stock antenna for receiving other systems too, and I didn't want to change antennas back and forth. Simulcast trunked systems are only one subset of all the trunked public safety radio systems, and it's possible to use this scanner for them, and can even be easy under some circumstances, but it's best to check. Performance on non-simulcast systems is great.
