Readable across the room
Everything from the scanner display, big enough to read from across the room. No more tiny LCD.
See the radio world around you.
You listen. Bearpaw listens with you, keeping track of everything your scanner picks up and showing you the patterns as they build. Download a CSV if you want to dive deeper into the area's radio activity.
The channel editor, everywhere.
The BC125AT's own software is Windows-only. Bearpaw does the same job on Mac, Windows, and Linux: edit all 500 channels, banks, tones, and lockouts, then upload the lot to the radio.
Import and export as CSV or native Uniden files, so you can use legacy backup files.
Bearpaw is great! I was actually going to buy a cheapie used PC laptop JUST to add/edit channel to my BC125AT (as I only have macs). Lifesaver app! Thank you.
Every knob, from the app
The scanner's own settings at your fingertips without all the button pressing.
Charts, not just a log
Bearpaw gives you a visual of radio activity. You can also download the log and do your own thing.
Does it work with my scanner?
Bearpaw drives conventional analog Uniden handhelds. It detects which one you have and adapts — channel count, bank size, and which controls appear all follow the radio that's plugged in.
- BC125AT US Verified Bearpaw is developed and tested against this radio.
- BC75XLT US Verified 300 channels, no alpha tags. Tested on real hardware.
- UBC125XLT Europe Verified Confirmed on real hardware by a contributor.
- BCT125AT US Expected Same USB ID and command set as the BC125AT.
- UBC126AT Europe Expected Recognized, but not yet tested.
- AE125H Europe (Albrecht) Expected Recognized, but not yet tested.
Expected means the scanner is in the same family and Bearpaw recognizes it, but nobody has run it against the real radio yet. Have one? Tell us how it went — that’s how the UBC125XLT became Verified.
Trunking scanners aren’t supported. The BC346XT, BCD396XT, BCD996XT and the rest of the TrunkTracker line organize memory as systems and sites rather than 500 flat channels — a different protocol, not a small addition. Bearpaw tells you by name when it meets a scanner it can’t drive.
