As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, there were several modification options available for the Uniden UBC780XLT scanning receiver. These modifications typically focused on expanding frequency ranges, improving reception, and adding features. However, please note that modifying electronic devices might void warranties and can potentially be illegal in some jurisdictions if used for unauthorized purposes. I recommend checking online forums, websites, or communities dedicated to scanner enthusiasts for the latest information on available modifications for this model. Keep in mind that developments beyond September 2021 are beyond my knowledge scope.
