BR330T

Uniden's analog-only portable Trunktracker scanner with Dynamic Memory Architecture and Race Track Operation. This is a TrunkTracker III scanner with Control Channel Only scanning and I-Call monitoring. Discontinued by Uniden in March of 2007.

Includes all bands and frequencies excluding only the cellular frequencies. This includes AM Broadcast, shortwave broadcast, CB (AM mode only), amateur radio (AM, FM, NFM), all TV broadcast channels (including the 512-800 MHz range never before covered in a trunking scanner).

Similar to the European UBC3500XLT.
