You can search these bands to quickly find active frequen- cies you might want to store into the scanner’s channels. For example, if you wanted to search for transmissions be- tween amateur radio operators, you could search only the search bands where you are most likely to hear the trans- missions (Bands 0, 1, 3, and 6). See “Band Search” on Page 29.
Note: The frequencies in the scanner’s search bands are preset. You cannot change them.
Monitor Memory
The scanner also has a monitor memory that you can use to temporarily store a frequency while you decide whether to save it into a channel. This is handy for quickly storing an active frequency when you are searching through an entire band using direct search. See “Direct Search” on Page 31.
