SCANNING THE STORED CHANNELS

To begin scanning channels, press

SCAN

. The scanner

scans through all non-locked channels in the activated
banks. When the scanner finds a transmission, it stops
on it. When the transmission ends, the scanner resumes
scanning.

a Trunked Bank” on Page 36.

MANUALLY SELECTING A CHANNEL

You can continuously monitor a single channel without

even though there might be periods of silence — or if
you want to monitor a specific channel.

2. Enter the channel number.

3. Press

MANUAL

again.

Or, if your scanner is scanning and stops at the desired
channel, press

MANUAL

one time. (Pressing

MANUAL

ad-

ditional times causes your scanner to step through the
channels.)

To resume scanning, press

SCAN

.

DELETING A STORED FREQUENCY

1. Press

MANUAL

.

2. Use the number keys to enter the channel number

containing the frequency you want to delete. Then
press

MANUAL

again.

3. Press

0

, then press

E

. The frequency is deleted.

Note: Channels with no frequencies are automatically
locked out during scanning.
