SCANNINg lEgAllY  
Your scanner covers frequencies used by many different groups,  
including police and fire departments, ambulance services,  
government agencies, private companies, amateur radio services,  
military operations, pager services, and wireline (telephone and  
telegraph) service providers. It is legal to listen to almost every  
transmission your scanner can receive. However, there are some  
transmissions that you should never intentionally listen to. These  
include:  
Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other private  
means of telephone signal transmission)  
Pager transmissions  
Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions  
According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act  
(ECPA), you are subject to fines and possible imprisonment for  
intentionally listening to, using, or divulging the contents of such  
a conversation unless you have the consent of a party to the  
conversation (unless such activity is otherwise illegal). This scanner  
has been designed to prevent the reception of cellular telephone  
transmissions and the decoding of scrambled transmissions. This  
is done to comply with the legal requirement that scanners be

manufactured so they are not easy to modify to pick up these  
transmissions. Do not open your scanner’s case to make any  
modifications that could allow it to pick up transmissions that are  
illegal to monitor. Modifying or tampering with your scanner’s  
internal components or using it in a way other than as described  
in this manual could invalidate your warranty and void your FCC  
authorization to operate it. In some areas, mobile and/or portable  
use of this scanner is unlawful or requires a permit. Check the  
laws in your area. It is also illegal in many areas (and a bad idea  
everywhere) to interfere with the duties of public safety officials by  
traveling to the scene of an incident without authorization.  
AbOUT YOUR NEW bC355N SCANNER  
The BC355N comes with 6 Service banks for monitoring police,  
fire/emergency medical services, marine, air, weather, and CB  
frequencies. In addition, the BC355N has 13 separate band  
searches.  
You can also save up to 300 frequencies that are scanned along  
with the preset frequencies. So whenever you encounter a newly  
activated local frequency for any service category, you can add it

to the bank for that category. This gives you quick access to the  
frequencies you want to hear.

Helpful Hints  
If strong interference or electrical noise is received, relocate  
the scanner or its antenna away from the source.  
If you are operating the scanner in a fringe area or need to  
improve reception, use an optional antenna designed for  
multi-band coverage. (You can purchase this type of antenna  
at a local electronics store.)  
If the optional antenna has no cable, use 50-70 ohm coaxial  
cable for lead-in. A mating plug may be necessary for the  
optional antennas.  
FOR MObIlE USE (IN-CAR INSTAllATION)  
Temporary Mobile Installation  
A Vehicle Power Adapter is provided for an easy, temporary power  
supply.  
Warning: do not use the Vehicle Power Adapter in a  
positive ground vehicle  
1. Plug one end of the Vehicle Power Adapter into the vehicle’s  
accessory power jack and the other end into the DC 13.8V jack  
on the back of the scanner.

2. Connect the mobile antenna plug into the ANT connector on  
the rear panel. For more information on antenna installation,  
please refer to the instruction guide that came with your  
mobile antenna.  
Permanent Mobile Installation  
Permanently installing the BC355N scanner into a vehicle involves  
two main steps - physically installing the scanner and physically  
connecting the power supply. It does not matter which is installed  
first; perform these procedures in an order that is most appropriate  
for your vehicle’s configuration.  
Permanently Mounting the BC355N Unit  
1. Select a location in your vehicle to mount the BC355N unit.  
Avoid any locations that could interfere with your driving. In a  
passenger car, the ideal location is underneath the dashboard  
on the passenger side.  
2. Use the mounting bracket (optional) as a template for  
marking the location of the mounting screws.  
Note: If there are screws already holding the dashboard,  
you may be able to use the same screw holes to mount the  
bracket  
19

3. Drill the necessary holes and secure the mounting bracket in  
place using the screws provided.  
CAUTION: do not drill into air bags  do not drill if what is  
behind the dashboard is unknown  
4. Mount the scanner to the bracket only after the wiring has  
been connected to the rear panel.  
Permanently Connecting the Mobile Power Supply  
CAUTION: If you are not experienced in connecting  
accessories to the vehicle fuse box, please see your  
automotive dealer for advice on proper installation  
1. Check the vehicle battery connections to determine which  
battery terminal (positive or negative) is grounded to the  
engine block or chassis. Most of today’s vehicles use a  
negative ground. If your vehicle has a negative ground, follow  
Steps 2 and 3. Otherwise, skip to the Caution in Step 3.  
2. Connect the RED wire of the DC power cord to the accessory  
contact in your vehicle’s +13.8 VDC fuse box.  
3. Connect the BLACK wire of the DC power cord to the negative  
side of the vehicle (usually the chassis).

Caution: In vehicles with a positive ground, the REd wire  
connects to the chassis and the blACK wire connects to  
the accessory contact in the fuse box  
4. Insert the DC plug into the DC 13.8V jack on the back panel.

Sometimes the scanner may stop on a particular channel or  
frequency because of noise or other unwanted transmissions. This  
feature lets you lock out channels and frequencies you don’t want  
to scan. The Lock Out feature skips these channels and frequencies  
during scanning.  
Types of Lock Out  
Temporary Lock Out  
Pressing l/O once temporarily locks out the current frequency or  
channel. The scanner displays “T L/Ofor that frequency or channel  
and continues scanning. All “T L/Ofrequencies/channels are  
restored when the scanner is powered off and back on.

Permanent Lock Out  
Pressing l/O twice permanently locks out the current frequency or  
channel. The scanner displays “L/Ofor that frequency or channel  
and continues scanning. L/Ofrequencies/channels can be  
manually restored; the procedure is provides in this section.  
Lock Out Limits  
Any of the 300 user-programmed channels can be locked out;  
however, there is a limit to the number of frequencies that can  
be locked out of a preprogrammed bank or band search. Up to  
100 frequencies can be permanently locked out, and up to 100  
frequencies can be temporarily locked out.  
If you try to permanently or temporarily lock out 101 frequencies,  
the scanner releases the first locked out frequency when you lock  
out the 101st frequency.  
Locking out a frequency in any service bank or search band locks it  
out in all service banks or search bands. However, it will not affect  
the frequency if you have saved it in a channel.  
You can only lock out all the channels or frequencies in the Private,  
Cb, and MRN banks. If you lock out all the channels or frequencies

PRIVATE bANK  
The BC355N also provides 3 separate banks to hold favorite  
frequencies. When you find a frequency that you would like to  
listen to again, you can program it into either the Pd/Fd/EMg or  
AIR/MRN service bank or into the Private bank. The advantage to  
programming frequencies into the Private bank is that you can  
scan that bank with other service banks turned off.  
Note: Although it is possible to program a Weather  
frequency into the Private bank, it is not recommended  
Weather frequencies broadcast continuously, and the  
scanner will not change to other frequencies  
Programming Frequencies and Channels  
Up to 100 frequencies (1 frequency per channel) can be  
programmed into each of the following banks (300 frequencies  
combined):  
Police/Fire/EMG  
Air/Marine  
Private  
Any displayed frequency for these banks can be programmed  
into the scanner, and frequencies not currently displayed can be
