If you made a mistake in Step 3, the scanner displays Error and beeps three times. Press CLEAR, then proceed again from Step 3.

Your scanner rounds frequen- cies down to the next valid fre- quency. For example, if you enter 151.473, the scanner accepts this as 151.470.

SEARCHING FOR AND TEMPORARILY STORING ACTIVE FREQUENCIES

You can search for frequencies using a limit or direct search, then tempo- rarily store frequencies into monitor memories.

Limit Search

A limit search lets you search for ac- tive transmissions within a specified range of frequencies.

Note: You can use the scanner’s de- lay feature during a limit search (see “Delay” on Page 26).

Follow these steps to search for active frequencies.

1.Press PROGRAM, then LIMIT. Lo and a frequency appear on the display.

2.Using the number keys, enter the lowest frequency (including the decimal point) you want to search, then press E.

Notes:

To use the rotary tuner to enter the frequency, turn it clockwise or counterclockwise until the desired frequency appears, then press E.

If you enter an invalid fre- quency, the scanner displays Error. To correct this, simply repeat the step.

3.Press LIMIT. Hi and a frequency appear on the display.

4.Using the number keys or the rotary tuner, enter the highest fre- quency you want to search, then press E.

5.Press s to search up from the lower to the upper limit, or press t to search down from the upper to the lower limit. –L–, SEARCH, and s or t appear, and the next available monitor memory flashes on the display.
