Locking Out Channels
You may have programmed certain channels that you do not
want to hear every time you scan. These are channels that
are busy a major portion of the time, and the scanner stops at
the channel(s) often enough to interrupt the scan cycle. You
can Lock Out those channels so they are not scanned.
1. Go directly to that channel using any of the methods
described above
2. Press UO appears at the lower right of the
display.
That channel is now “Locked Out" of the scanning cycle.
However, you can access that channel at any time using one
of the Direct Channel Access methods
To pul the channel back in the scanning cycle:
1. Go directly to the desired channel.
2. Press ( I/O ). The L/0 indicator now disappears from
The display, and the channel is no longer “Locked Out".
You can lock out any or alt of the Priority Channels the same
way as other channels. If you lock out M Priority Channels
and you press (~P^ you will see this message.

If you want to put all the "Locked-Ouf' channels of
an active bank back to the scanning cycle, press 0
to put scanning on HOLD. Then press and hold (jJO )
key for about two seconds until you hear two beeps.
All channels are now returned to scanning cycle
except those that are empty (000.000 MHz).
Looking for “Locked Out” Channels
During scanning, you will not see “Locked Out” channels. To
look for “Locked Out” channels, first press @ to stop
scanning. Then use A or T to step through the Bank. You
will see L/0” on the display to indicate a “Locked Out” channel.
