Service Search

You can search for Weather, Police, Fire/Emergency, Marine, Racing, Civil Air, HAM Radio, Railroad, CB radio, and Other (Other = FRS/GMRS/MURS) transmissions without knowing the specific frequencies used in your area. The scanner is preprogrammed with all the frequencies allocated to these services. To use this feature, press Func + Svc. SRCH appears and the scanner starts searching from the weather service bands.

To select a different service search, repeatedly press Svc as long as you are still in Function mode. If you are not in Function mode, press Func to return and then press Svc.

Services are scanned in the following order: Weather, Police, Fire/Emergency, Marine, Racing, Civil Air, HAM Radio, Railroad, CB radio, and Other (Other = FRS/GMRS/MURS). When the scanner stops on a transmission, press Hold to stop searching and listen to the transmission. Hold displays. In this mode, you can also turn the scroll control knob to step through the frequencies.

To release the hold and continue searching, press Hold again.

Note: Because there are many different frequencies allocated to fire and police departments, it can take several minutes to search all the service frequencies.
