About Your Scanner

About Your Scanner

We use a few simple terms in this manual to explain

the features of the scanner. Familiarize yourself with

these terms and the scanner's features, and you can

put the scanner to work for you right away. Simply

determine the type of communications you want to

receive, then set the scanner to scan those

communications.
A frequency, expressed in kHz or MHz, is the tuning

location of a station. To find active frequencies, you

use the search function or refer to a frequency

reference.
Besides searching within a selected frequency

range, you can also search your scanner's service

banks. Service banks are preset groups of

frequencies categorized by the type of services that

use those frequencies.
When you search and find a desired frequency, you

can store it into a programmable memory location

called a channel. Channels are grouped into

channel-storage banks. The scanner has 10

channel-storage banks and each bank has 20

channels. You can scan the channel-storage banks

to see if there is activity on the frequencies stored

there.
