Operating Instructions Memory Backup Your BCT-12 has a memory backup system that remembers your frequency selections and deletions when you turn off the unit. This memory lasts permanently without any external power to the unit. Birdies There may be situations where your BCT-12 emits strange sounds through its speaker. This should be a temporary situation that will change as you drive. If the situation does not change, no matter what your location, you may consider locking out these channels with the L key. If your scanner stops during Scan mode and no sound is heard, press the H key twice to resume scanning. Important Operating Tips Your BCT-12 is not a radar detector. Using a Uniden radar detector in tandem with your BCT-12 will provide you with an excellent form of protection on the interstates. The best way to use your BCT-12 is to rely both on the warning tones as well as on the regular voice communications heard on the scanner. The alarm circuit on your BCT-12 provides you with a degree of protection that varies from state to state. Not all states employ mobile extenders, but all states do have frequencies that have been flagged for use by special enforcement teams. Remember, the warning circuit only works with State Police and Highway Patrol cars, not with local police. For local police and county sheriff information, you must listen to the scanner audio to monitor local police radio traffic. 31
