The Uniden® Bearcat® 175XL has 16 memory channels each of which can be
programmed to store one frequency. When [SCAN | is pressed, each of the
programmed frequencies will be sampled in sequence, but locked out chan­
nels wili be skipped.
In each programming example, the keys to be pressed are listed in sequence
after the word PRESS. After the word “Display” will be an illustration of the
actual displayed data. Follow the examples carefully, and programming will
be easy.
Plug the AC power cord into a standard 220 Vac wall outlet and into the AC
Power receptacle (fig.t) on the radio. Slip the cord into the retaining channel on
the bottom of the unit to avoid accidental disconnection. Turn the unit ON by
rotating the ON-OFF volume switch clockwise. Press MANUAL key and adjust
the "SQUELCH" CONTROL (fig. 2) clockwise until you hear background noise;
then turn it back counterclockwise until the noise disappears.
If you know the exact frequencies you wish to Scan, proceed with “Program­
ming”. If you do not know the frequencies of the agencies (i.e., police, fire,
weather, etc.) you wish to scan, check with your dealer. Active frequencies
can also be found through “Search”.
