Why?
2,500 programable channels as opposed to 250 on bct-8
close capture feature to (AUtomatically tune into nearby transmitters) Unlike the bct-8 where manual tuning is still required.
Gps capablity. Meaning you can hook it up to your gps device, and when you go from county to county it will automatically based on preprogrammed freq's tune into that county based on your location and will detune itself to the previous county via gps location so that you don't get the annoying chatter of the distant freq's that you just had programed as you did in the past, which makes for alot more peacefull ride than the bct-8.
And all this for only $30.00 more on the average, good additions if you ask me and well worth the $30.00 saves you taking your eyes off the road and to me thats always a good thing, keeps us moving at mock speeds and safer while doing it. Although if your stubborn and like doing things the annoying hard way to some extent even though the bct-8 does make it alot easier it was just work in progress for uniden and you can tell by looking at the two models specs. The bct-15 is where it all finally came together with what uniden was TRUELY looking for ease of operation to the user, a way to keep your eyes on the road and still enjoy your scanner.
Although with the bct-15 you could very likely from the specs travel all the way from Michigan to flordia and never have to touch the scanner once unless to turn it on or off at the hotel. The bct-8 that wouldn't ever happen. You'd have to tune something at some point, the bct-15 you wouldn't have to do those minor recalculations.
