I bought the 8500 when they first came out for mil-air monitoring.This scanner was very prone to intermod.It was replaced with the 9000XLT and I found the selectivity was much better than the 8500XLT.If you're out in the country the 8500XLT would be suitable if you do not need to monitor any trunked or P-25 systems.

pro-2036

pro-2036

It's been years since I've had any of the scanners mentioned, but I think the Pro-2036 was the same as the Uniden Bearcat 890XLT.They shared the same case.

thats the one ,the other one mentioned looks like the sdame case as well .maybe it does trunking??mine does not and i could never program that stuff anyway .

sure would love a new home patrol scanner but the price tag is too great .

you got it for $50.00 so you say? well, why not take an old fashioned ruler to it, and measure it ?

oh, and look what i found in less than one minute of searching... on GOOGLE even.
RadioPics Database - Bearcat/Uniden - BC8500XLT

if your tape measure or ruler is broken, looks like the dimensions are
Dimensions (W*H*D): 267*85*190 mm (10½ x 3½ x 7½ inch)

By intermod I mean interference caused by close by high power transmitters like pagers or a NOAA weather transmitter,basically like bleed-over on the CB band.
