AMWUB371DESKTOP SCANNING RECEIVER

BC345CRS Owner’s Manual © 2013 Uniden America Corporation Printed in Vietnam Fort Worth, Texas U01UB371ZZZ(0) PRECAUTIONS Before you use this scanner, please read and observe the following. IMPORTANT! This scanning radio has been manufactured so that it will not tune to the radio frequencies assigned by the FCC for cellular telephone usage. The Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986, as amended, makes it a federal crime to intentionally intercept cellular or cordless telephone transmissions or to market this radio when altered to receive them. The installation, possession, or use of this scanning radio in a motor vehicle may be prohibited, regulated, or require a permit in certain states, cities, and/or local jurisdictions. 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, could void your authority to operate this product. EARPHONE WARNING! You can use an optional 32Ω stereo headset or earphone with this scanner. Use of an incorrect earphone or stereo headset might be potentially hazardous to your hearing. The output of the phone jack is monaural, but you will hear it in both headphones of a stereo headset. Set the speaker volume to a comfortable level before plugging in either a monaural earphone or a stereo headset of the proper impedance (32Ω). Otherwise, you might experience some discomfort or possible hearing damage if the volume suddenly becomes too loud because of the volume control or squelch control setting. This is particularly true for the type of earphone that is placed in the ear canal. WARNING: Uniden does not represent this unit to be waterproof. To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. Uniden ® and Bearcat® are registered trademarks of Uniden America Corporation. Other trademarks used throughout this manual are the property of their respective holders. Important: If you use the supplied AC adapter to power the scanner but have not installed batteries in the scanner, never turn the scanner off by disconnecting the AC adapter or unplugging it from the AC outlet. This might corrupt the scanner’s memory. Always use POWER to turn the scanner off before disconnecting AC power. 2 3 CONTENTS PRECAUTIONS ............................................................................2 THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW .................................................5 Scanning Legally ............................................................................5 WHAT'S IN THE BOX ...................................................................6 INTRODUCTION ..........................................................................7 Band Ranges ..................................................................................7 USA Bands .................................................................................7 Canada Bands ............................................................................8 CONTROLS ................................................................................11 Controls .......................................................................................11 Display .....................................................................................16 SETTING UP THE SCANNER .......................................................18 Connecting Power .......................................................................18 Connecting an Antenna ...............................................................19 Using the Backlight ......................................................................19 USING THE CLOCK .....................................................................20 Setting the Current Time .............................................................20 Setting the Alarm Time ................................................................20 Using Snooze ...............................................................................21 Listening to AM/FM Channels ..................................................21 Directly Selecting a Channel ........................................................21 Using AM/FM Channel Memory ..................................................21 Setting up Sleep Mode ................................................................22 Using the Scanner Memories ....................................................22 Programming Memories .............................................................22 Selecting a Channel .....................................................................23 Scanning Memory Banks .............................................................23 Locking/Unlocking CHANNELS .....................................................23 Using Priority Scan.......................................................................24 Setting Channel Delay .................................................................24 SEARCHING FOR ACTIVE FREQUENCIES .....................................24 Using Limit Search .......................................................................24 Programming the Limit Search Range Upper/Lower Limits ....25 Searching the Selected Range .................................................25 Holding on a Frequency within the Limit Search Range ..........25 Search Lockouts ...........................................................................25 To unlock all frequencies .............................................................25 4 Listening to Service Channels....................................................26 Using Service Search ...................................................................26 Selecting a Service to Search ...................................................26 LISTENING TO WEATHER CHANNELS .........................................27 Weather…

Firstly, this device range is limited to 530 kHz (AM broadcast) ~ 512 MHz, and 800/900 MHz range is not included. In this circuitry, this device is not readily alterable to restore the cellular band coverage because the inventory of frequencies contained within this band is not available in the microprocessor. Also, the microprocessor is fixed soldered and not easily removable. Therefore, since the clipping of leads; or the installation of a simple component such as a diode, resistor, or a jumper wire; or the reprogramming of any semiconductor device contained within this unit cannot be accomplished using a special access code or a personal computer; This is to certify that the conditions mandated in part 15.121 have been met. Please contact the undersigned if you have any questions or need any further information. Regards, Jon Suehiro Manager, Engineering and Regulatory Affairs

Radiation Interference: The test procedure used was ANSI Standard C63.4-2003 using a spectrum analyzer with a pre-selector. The bandwidth of the spectrum analyzer was 100 kHz with an appropriate sweep speed. The analyzer was calibrated in dB above a microvolt at the output of the antenna. The video bandwidth was always greater than or equal to the RBW. Formula Of Conversion Factors: The Field Strength at 3m was established by adding the meter reading of the spectrum analyzer (which is set to read in units of dBμV) to the antenna correction factor supplied by the antenna manufacturer. The antenna correction factors are stated in terms of dB. The gain of the Preselector was accounted for in the Spectrum Analyzer Meter Reading. Example: Freq (MHz) Meter Reading + ACF +CL = FS 33 20 dBμV + 10.36 dB/m +0.40 dB =30.76 dBμV/m @ 3m ANSI C63.4-2003 Section 10.1.7 Measurement Procedures: The unit under test was placed on a table 80 cm high and with dimensions of 1mby 1.5m. The table used for radiated measurements is capable of continuous rotation. When an emission was found, the table was rotated to produce the maximum signal strength. At this point, the antenna was raised and lowered from 1m to 4m. T…
