When the scanner finds a frequency, Found displays; it does not display the frequency. Press any key to confirm the displayed frequency. Press Scan to resume scanning. Every 2 seconds, the scanner checks for frequencies in the Close Call band you specified (see page 43).
Locking Out Channels and Frequencies
You can skip any channel or up to 200 specified frequencies during Search mode (100 permanent and 100 temporary). This lets you avoid unwanted frequencies (Search/Close Call modes), channels that have a continuous transmission (such as a weather channel), or have static and interference.
