This setting controls the attenuator for quick search and

Close Call operation. Select your setting, then press E.

Off

The attenuator is off.

Reception is attenuated by about 18 dB.

Note: Turn on this setting if you are near other strong

signal sources. Attenuation sometimes helps to reduce

interference and desensitization that strong signals create.

detects a constant-level transmission during quick search

operation.

Notes:

• If you are trying to test the Close Call feature with a

nearby transmitter and you do not talk into the
transmitter, the scanner will detect this as data and
will skip the frequency when Data Skip is on. Turn the
feature off or talk into the transmitter.

• The default for this feature is On.
