In 2012, technology took a great leap forward, and the world of handheld radio scanners was no exception. As diverse as the technological landscape was that year, a strong selection of handheld radio scanners emerged, catering to a wide audience of hobbyists, emergency service personnel, and outdoor enthusiasts. This blog is dedicated to revisiting the notable handheld radio scanners of 2012, dissecting their features, performance, and overall usability.
The Uniden Bearcat BC75XLT was a standout for several reasons. The first, and arguably the most significant, was its solid and sturdy design. It came with a comprehensive frequency range of 25MHz to 1.3GHz excluding cellphones, ensuring broad usability across all types of users. Not forgetting its Close Call RF capture technology that instantly tunes into signals from nearby transmitters.
The Whistler WS1040 had a modern approach to radio scanning, personified by its innovative features and sleek design. Boasting of a free-form memory that allowed storage of frequencies in any order, it ranked high for its extreme flexibility. It had Object Oriented User Interface, a unique system that brought an unprecedented level of customization to the users.
RadioShack’s PRO-651 was hallmark scanner, partly due to the brand's iconic reputation in the electronics industry. Offering a dynamic memory system alongside support for narrowband reception represented the most sought-after features during that time. Its design, although a tad bit retro, harked nostalgically to the times when radios were staples in every household.
The GRECOM PSR-800 may not have been the most famous, but it undoubtedly was a solid performer. Known for its simplicity and efficiency, it didn’t offer as much customization as the Whistler WS1040, but still held its own with features like EZ-Scan and high-speed PC interface.
AOR’s AR-DV1 was a scanner meant for the pros, equipped with an array of features that leaned towards the high-end market. Decoding a wide range of digital modes marked its uniqueness in the 2012 line-up.
Alinco DJ-X11 was a surprise package in the list of high-end scanners, sporting an ergonomic design that packed a punch in terms of features, such as wide band coverage, Dual VFO, and SSB (Single Side Band) mode reception, distinguishing the Alinco from other handheld models.
Each of these products had an impact on the handheld radio scanner landscape in 2012. The year marked a significant evolution in design, technology, and functionality of these devices. As we revisit these fantastic gadgets from the past, we're reminded not only of the progress since then but also how brilliantly these devices served us at that time. Whether for leisure, professional use, or emergencies, the 2012 handheld radio scanners were a noteworthy bunch, forever etched in the annals of radio scanner history.
