Weather Alert — the scanner automatically sounds an alert when it receives a weather emergency signal, providing more complete information about weather conditions in your immedi- ate area.
Weather Band Key — scans seven preprogrammed weather frequencies to keep you informed about current weather condi- tions.
Wired Programming — you can connect your scanner to a per- sonal computer and program frequencies into the scanner from the computer using an optional cable and software.
Note: The necessary cable and software, and additional information about using your personal computer to program your scanner, are available at your local RadioShack store.
Scan Delay — delays scanning for about 2 seconds before moving to another channel, so you can hear more replies that are transmitted on the same channel.
Priority Channel — lets you program a channel as the priority channel. As the scanner scans, it checks the priority channel ev- ery 2 seconds so you do not miss transmissions on that chan- nel.
HyperSearch and HyperScan — let you set the scanner to search at up to 50 steps per second (in frequency bands with 5 kHz steps) and scan at up to 25 channels per second, to help you quickly find interesting broadcasts.
Manual Access — you can directly access any stored channel by entering that channel’s number.
Key Lock — lets you lock the scanner’s keys to help prevent accidentally changing the scanner’s programming.
Supplied Flexible Antenna with BNC Connector — provides good reception of strong local signals. You can connect an ex- ternal antenna with a BNC connector to the scanner for im- proved reception of distant/weaker signals.
