Changing the Frequency Step

2:SCAN OPTION

→ 1:CONVENTIONAL →

Channel No.

→ 6:STEPS

The channel frequency step option controls the frequency
step size used when you manually tune up or down from the
frequency stored in the channel. Your BC296D is
preprogrammed with the most common steps sizes for each
band, so you seldom need to change this setting.

1:5KHz

Use 5 kHz steps

2:6.25KHz

Use 6.25 kHz steps

3:7.5KHz

Use 7.5 kHz steps

4:10KHz

Use 10 kHz steps

5:12.5KHz

Use 12.5 kHz steps

6:25KHz

Use 25 kHz steps

7:50KHz

8:100KHz

Setting the Modulation Mode

2:SCAN OPTION

→ 1:CONVENTIONAL →

Channel No.

→ 7:MODE

Radio transmissions are modulated in several different ways.
The BC296D is able to demodulate the most common
transmission types. Your scanner has the most common
modulation mode preset for each band, so you seldom have
to change this option. However there are occasional services
that use a modulation mode that is not standard for that band.

1:AM

Amplitude Modulation

2:FM

Frequency Modulation

3:WFM
