MANUALLY STORING
FREQUENCIES IN
CHANNELS
You can manually store up to 200 fre-
quencies into your scanner’s chan-
nels.
Great references for active frequen-
cies are the RadioShack “Police Call
Guide including Fire and Emergency
Services,” “Official Aeronautical Fre-
quency Directory,” and “Maritime
Frequency Directory.” We update
these directories every year, so be
sure to get a current copy.
If you do not have a reference to fre-
quencies in your area, you can use a
limit or direct search to find a trans-
mission (see “Searching For and
Temporarily Storing Active Frequen-
cies” on Page 20).
Follow these steps to manually store
frequencies.
1. Press MANUAL to stop the scan-
ning.
2. Enter the channel number where
you want to store a frequency.
3. Press PGM . BANK and the bank
number, the selected channel
number and
CH , 000.0000
MHz , and PROGRAM appear.
4. Enter the frequency you want to
store, including the decimal
point.
Note: When you enter a fre-
quency, the scanner automati-
cally rounds it to the nearest
valid number. For example, if
you enter
151.473 , your scanner
rounds it up to 151.475.
5. Press ENTER to store the fre-
quency into the selected chan-
nel.
Note: If you made a mistake in
Step 4,
Error appears. Repeat
Steps 4 and 5.
6. To program the next channel in
sequence, repeat Steps 3–5. To
program other channels not in
sequence, repeat Steps 2–5.
