USING PRIORITY
The priority feature lets you scan through channels and still not
miss important or interesting calls on a frequency you select.
You can program one frequency into the priority channel. As
the scanner scans, if the priority feature is turned on, the scan-
ner checks the priority channel for activity every 2 seconds.
1. Press PGM , then press PRI/ALERT . PCH and 000.000 or
the previously-stored frequency appear.
2. Enter the frequency you want to enter into the priority
channel, then press ENT . The display flashes twice.
If you listen to a channel or frequency and you want to move
this frequency to the priority channel, hold down
ENT then
press PRI . PCH and the frequency flash twice.
Notes:
• You cannot move a frequency to the priority channel while
the scanner is in its programming mode.
• Wait until PCH and the frequency stop flashing before
pressing additional keys.
To turn on the priority feature, press PRI/ALERT during scan-
ning. PRI appears. The scanner checks the priority channel
every 2 seconds and stays on the channel if there is activity.

the priority channel.
To turn off the priority feature, press PRI/ALERT . PRI disap-
pears.
Note: If you program a weather frequency into the priority
channel and the scanner detects a WX alert tone on that fre-
quency (see “WX Alert” on Page 36), the scanner sounds the
alert tone and
ALErt flashes. Press any key to turn off the
alarm.
