Band Search

If you do not know of a frequency to store, you can search your scanner’s preprogrammed search bands (see “Search Bands” on Page 24) for active frequencies, then store any that you find into your scanner’s channels.

Follow these steps to search for and store active frequen- cies using band search.

1.Press BAND. The last selected band number (b fol- lowed by the band number) and the frequency search range appear for about 2 seconds.

2.To select a different band, within 2 seconds, enter the band’s number (0–9) or repeatedly press BAND until the desired band number appears.

After about 2 seconds, SRCH appears, the next available channel flashes, and the scanner begins searching rapidly upward in that band (from lowest to highest frequency) for an active frequency.
