Preprogrammed System Tips
All systems preprogrammed into the scanner are assigned to a Quick Key. See
“Preprogrammed Systems with Quick Keys” on Page 140 for a list of
preprogrammed systems and their Quick Key assignments.
Notes:
• The systems preprogrammed into the scanner are located primarily in major
metropolitan areas.
• You might hear transmissions on frequencies assigned to very distant stations.
This will happen if a local system also uses the same frequency.
• The Nationwide system assigned to SQK 20 is enabled by default.

system or systems you want to scan. For quick keys [0] - [9], press the quick key’s
number. For quick keys 10-99, press [.No] then press the quick key’s 2-digit
number. To stop scanning the system(s), press [.No] (if the quick key is a 2-digit
quick key) then the number button or buttons again.
The Sx: (system) indicators on the display show the systems that are currently
selected.
