About Your New UBC180XLT
The UBC180XLT is a brand new state-of-the-art information
radio with automatic scanning capabilities. It can store
frequencies such as sporting events, police, fire/emergency,
and other communications into 10 banks of 10 channels each.
Please be aware that restrictions apply on monitoring of non-
public services. Respect national laws protecting privacy!
With the UBC180XLT, you can do a fast search for active
frequencies on all 14 preprogrammed bands. In the VHF
bands with 5 kHz spacing and on all 100 stored channels
you can also use the super fast Turbo Search Mode!
What is Scanning?
Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way
communications do not transmit continuously. The
UBC180XLT scans programmed channels at the rate of
nearly 100 channels per second until it finds an active
frequency.
Scanning stops on an active frequency, and remains on
that channel as long as the transmission continues. When
the transmission ends, the scanning cycle resumes until
another transmission is received. Or, you can select an
optional Delay so the scanner stays on the channel for 2
more seconds after the transmission stops, waiting for
another transmission, before resuming scanning.
While the UBC180XLT is scanning channels it is in “SCAN
Mode”. When you stop the scanning with , it is in
“MANUAL Mode”.
What is Searching?
The UBC180XLT can search each of 14 preprogrammed
bands to find active frequencies. This is different from
scanning, because you can search for frequencies that
have not been programmed into your UBC180XLT. You
can also search within the range of frequencies you have
programmed before. You can set the direction of searching
as well as the speed. The Turbo Search feature, new for
Uniden scanners, can search VHF bands at up to 3 times
the normal speed.
When the UBC180XLT is searching for active frequencies,
it is in “SEARCH Mode” or “TURBO SEARCH Mode”.
When you stop the search with , it is in “SEARCH
HOLD Mode”. With both Turbo Scan and Turbo Search,
your UBC180XLT is truly a Twin Turbo Scanner.
