Locking Out IDs

As with conventional scanning, it is possible to lock out
unwanted traffic. This is particularly important in trunk-
ed systems because signals you cannot listen to (such
as water meters, door alarms, traffic signals, and en-
crypted signals) are assigned IDs just like other users.
You can have up to 100 IDs locked out at one time.

Note: If you lock out an ID while searching, it is also
locked out of the scan list(s). See “Scan Lists” on
Page 48.

To lock out an ID, press

L-OUT

when the ID appears.

The ID is locked out, and the next active ID appears.
