A GENERAL GUIDE TO SCANNING

Reception of the frequencies covered by your scanner is mainly “line-
of-sight.” That means you usually cannot hear stations that are beyond
the horizon.

Canadian Weather Frequencies

Note: The Canadian frequencies are not preprogrammed in this scan-
ner, but you can manually search or store them.
