5. By default, the scanner will

configure the channels you
enter for a two second delay
after a transmission is
received. This is indicated by
the D character that appears
in the top row of the display. If

NOTES

Ô

If you made a mistake
in entering the
frequency,

Invalid Freq

briefly appears and
the scanner beeps
when you press
ENTER. Enter the
frequency again.

Your scanner
automatically rounds
the entered frequency
to the nearest valid
frequency. For
example, if you enter
a frequency of
151.53, your scanner
accepts it as
151.5275. Reception
of the frequency will
not be adversely
affected.

If you enter a
frequency that has
already been entered
elsewhere in the
same bank, the
scanner sounds an
error tone and
displays

Dupl.f

and the

channel number that
has been duplicated.
If the dual entry is an
error press CLR and
enter the correct
frequency. If the dual
entry is intentional
press ENTER to
accept.

You may replace any
frequency by
selecting the bank
and channel, pressing
PGM and entering the
new frequency.

You can clear
programmed
frequency data by
pressing FUNC, then
CLR.

If you make an error
in the entry process,
press CLR as often as
needed to erase the
incorrect data, or
press and hold CLR
for one second to
clear the entire field.
