You can increase the effective scanning or search speed by
locking out individual channels or frequencies that have a
continuous transmission, such as a weather channel (see
“National Weather Frequencies” on Page 24) or a birdie
frequency (see “Birdie Frequencies” on Page 24).
To lock out a channel while scanning or a frequency during
one-touch search or while tuning, press
L/O/L/O RVW when
the scanner stops on the channel or frequency. If you
locked out a frequency, the scanner locks it out then
continues searching.
To manually lock out a channel, select the channel then
hold down
L/O/L/O RVW until
B%E B%E B%E B%E
appears.
To remove the lockout from a channel, manually select that
channel again, then press
L/O/L/O RVW until
B%E B%E B%E B%E
disappears.
See “Removing Lockouts From All Frequencies in a One
Touch Search Bank” and “Removing Lockouts From All
Frequencies” for more information about removing lockout
from frequencies.

Locking Out Channels or
Frequencies
• Your scanner automatically
locks out empty channels.
• You can still manually select
locked-out channels.
• You can lock out as many as 50
frequencies during a search. If
you try to lock out more,
appears (see “Reviewing
Locked-Out Frequencies” and
“Removing Lockouts From All
Frequencies” on Page 21).
Removing Lockouts From All
Frequencies in a One Touch
Search Bank
• These steps do not clear any
lockouts in the marine and
weather bank.
• If you locked out frequencies
which are within the range of
any of the one touch search
banks during tune, the scanner
also removes those locked-out
frequencies when you use these
steps. For example, if you
locked out 29.000 MHz while
tuning, the scanner removes it,
since 29.000 MHz is one of the
frequencies in the ham radio
service bank.
