FEATURES
Your new RadioShack PRO-72 50-Channel Portable
Scanner gives you direct access to over 32,000 exciting
frequencies, including police and fire departments, ambu-
lance services, and amateur radio services. You can se-
lect up to 50 channels to scan, and you can change your
selection at any time.
The secret to your scanner’s ability to scan so many fre-
quencies is its custom-designed microprocessor — a tiny,
built-in computer.
Your scanner has these special features:
Ten Preprogrammed Search Bands — let you search
for transmissions within preset frequency ranges, so you
can find interesting frequencies more quickly.
Ten Preprogrammed Weather Frequencies — keep
you informed about current weather conditions.
HyperScan ™ and HyperSearch ™ — so you can scan up
to 25 channels per second and search up to 50 steps per
second.
Fifty Channels — let you store up to 50 of your favorite
frequencies for easy recall and scanning.
Duplicate Frequency Check — automatically warns you
if you try to store a frequency you’ve already stored, to
help you use the scanner’s memory more efficiently.
Monitor Memory — lets you temporarily save a frequen-
cy located during a direct search, so you can move it to
channel storage later.
