Introduction
Welcome
Congratulations on your purchase of the BCT-12 Highway
Information System & Pre-programmed Warning Scanner!
State-of-the-art engineering and advanced electronics provide you

operation and dependability.
With the BCT-12 Scanning Radio, you can listen to hundreds of
highway patrol, local police, sheriff’s department, department of
transportation, and news media frequencies as well as NOAA
weather channels.
The frequencies in your BCT-12 have been uniquely selected on a
State-by-State basis to provide you with the highest level of

when a priority channel is detected!
Best of all, you don’t have to program any frequencies. Just set the
BCT-12 for your state, and the scanner will do the rest. Please

Terms and Definitions
Frequency Radio signals are sent as waves through the air. These
waves move up and down. A frequency is the number of
times in a certain time period, usually a second, that
these waves move all the way up and all the way down
and back to all the way up. For example: 123.450 kHz
means that the waves are moving all the way up and all
the way down and back all the way up again 123,450
times each second.
Mobile Extender Most Highway patrol vehicles on the road today are
equipped with a secondary radio system known as a
“mobile extender” or “vehicle repeater.” Whenever the
dispatcher transmits to any vehicle in the district, every
“mobile extender” in every car withing the district is
activated.
Priority Alert Using a constant PRIORITY check of specific
frequencies in each state, the BCT-12 recognizes and
alerts you to transmissions from “mobile extender”
radios as well as from car-to-car, aircraft-to-aircraft and
other special-purpose frequencies. You receive an
audible (beep tone) and visual (flash of warning light)
alert whenever you are within an approximate three mile
radius of many Highway Patrol/State Police units.
Scanning Scanning is the process by which your scanning radio
checks each frequency for the presence of a signal, and
when it finds a frequency with a signal, for example
someone talking on it, it stops, allowing you to listen to
the signal.
Weather Alert Lets your scanner function as a severe weather warning
radio. With Weather Alert turned on, when the NOAA
issues a severeweather warning radio. With Weather
Alert turned on, when the NOAA issues a severe
weather warning, the BCT-12 sounds an alert tone and
youl will hear the emergency weather broadcast.

Installation
The BCT-12 uses a highly sensitive antenna to receive radio
signals. Its sensitivity and range depend on the method of
installation and the direction of the antenna in relation to the signal
source. Before you decide where to put your scanner, please keep
in mind one important factor:
For safety, do not mount the BCT-12 in a location where it will
obstruct your driving vision.
Helpful Tips
The antenna is located on the side of the unit. It should not be
obstructed and should be pointed as close to straight up or down
for best operation.
•Do not mount the unit in front of the heater or defroster vents.
•Do not leave the unit in direct sunlight or in the glove
compartment of a closed car for long periods of time. Also,
removing the unit from the windshield makes you less
susceptible to break-in and theft.
•Be sure the BCT-12 is mounted free of obstructions from the
rear view mirror, sun visors, or the ceiling of the automobile.
Optional Antennas
Your BCT-12 was designed for the easiest installation possible.
Uniden has packaged an additional Window Mount antenna with
your BCT-12 that will provide better performance on VHF
frequencies. For the best reception possible in every state, you
might consider a mobile scanner antenna which mounts
magnetically to your car or truck.
For more information on these and other options available for your
BearTracker, please ask your local Uniden dealer or call
1-800-248-5441.

Windshield Mounting
1. Find a good position for the BCT-12 on your windshield. Refer
to the Helpful Tips on page 5 for some guidelines on mounting
positions.
2. Put the metal
mounting
bracket with
the suction
cups on the
windshield to
adjust it for
best position.
3. If necessary, adjust the metal
mounting bracket so that
when you slide the BCT-12
onto it, it is parallel to the
road surface and fits flush
against the windshield. Your
BCT-12 should look like one
of the examples at the right
once it is installed.
Caution: Do Not adjust the metal mounting bracket with the
BCT-12 attached. Doing so can cause damage to the
bracket and the unit.

4. Snap the windshield
mounting clip onto the
BCT-12.
5. Slide the plastic windshield
mounting clip into the metal
mounting bracket.
The mounting clip locks into the plastic portion at three different
positions. These positions can be used for vehicles with different
vertical angles of their windshields. The back position can be used
for vehicles with windshields that are slanted back.
