Understanding Banks

Service Banks

The scanner is preprogrammed with all the frequencies allocated to the aircraft and FM CB.

Channel-Storage Banks

To make it easier to identify and select the channels you want to listen to, the 200 channels are divided into 10 channel-storage banks. Each bank has 20 channels. Use each channel-storage bank to group frequencies, such as those for the railroad, police department, or aircraft.

For example, the police department might use eight frequencies in your town while the railroad uses an additional four. You could program the eight police frequencies starting with Channel 1 (the first channel in bank 1), and program the railroad frequencies starting with Channel 21 (the first channel in bank 2).
