About Your Scanner
We use a few simple terms in this manual to explain the features of the scanner. Familiarize yourself with these terms and the scanner's features, and you can put the scanner to work for you right away. Simply determine the type of communications you want to receive, then set the scanner to scan those communications.
A frequency, expressed in kHz or MHz, is the tuning location of a station. To find active frequencies, you use the search function or refer to a frequency reference.
When you search and find a desired frequency, you can store it into a programmable memory location called a channel. You can scan the channels if there are any activities on the frequencies stored there.
A Look At The Keypad
Your scanner's keys have various functions labeled on the key tops and below the keys.
To select the function labeled on a key, simply press the key. To select the function labeled below a key, first press Func then release it. F appears on the
display. Then press the next key in the function key sequence while F appears. F appears or
disappears as you press Func.
