disappears. Then press E. You can also use

the 0-9 keys to select the bank. To continue

searching, press FUNC + SVC.

If you entered a frequency that has already been

entered elsewhere, the scanner sounds an error

tone and displays the channel that was duplicated.
If you entered the frequency by mistake, press ./CLR

then enter the correct frequency. To enter the

frequency anyway, press E to accept.

scanning the stored channels

To begin scanning channels, press SCAN. The
scanner scans through all non-locked channels in
the activated banks. (See “locking out channels” on
Page 48 and “turning channel-storage banks on and
off” on Page 48). The scanner stops when it finds a
transmission. When the transmission ends, the
scanner resumes scanning.

Notes:

If you have not stored frequencies into any
channels, the scanner does not scan.

If the scanner picks up unwanted partial, or very
weak transmissions, turn SQUELCH clockwise
to decrease the scanner’s sensitivity to these
signals. To listen to a weak or distant station,
turn SQUELCH counterclockwise.
