asearch.

2.Within about 2 seconds, enter the search band number. The band’s number appears next to b on the left side of the dis- play and the frequency range of the search band appears on the right. Then the next available channel flashes.

Notes:

If you do not press a number key within 2 seconds after you press BAND/, the number for the previously selected search band is displayed, then the scanner displays the next avail- able channel number (or 00 if you have not stored frequen- cies into any channels). If this happens, simply press the search band’s number key again to select the band you want.

You can also repeatedly press BAND/in Step 2 instead of entering a number to select a search band.

After you select a search band, the scanner automatically search- es from the lower limit to the upper limit through all frequencies in the search band.
