Handheld Scanners

Uniden Bearcat Handheld Police Scanners

Analog Versus Digital

When shopping for a police scanner, it is important to know if your local police/fire and other emergency providers are still on analog or if they have switched to digital communications.  This is very important!  If they have switched to digital, an analog scanner will not pick up those communications.  A digital scanner will pick up both analog and digital communications.
