Signal Stalker I

Signal Stalker I searches for frequencies in a speciﬁed range. This works well for locating strong local transmissions, such as mobile and handheld two way radios in areas with no other strong transmission sources; however, if you are in an area with many transmission sources (such as pager radio transmitters, multiuse radio towers, trafﬁc control devices, etc.), Signal Stalker I may not correctly display.

Signal Stalker I can work in the background while scanning other frequencies and automatically saves strong signals to one of 10 log channels, located after Channel 1000. You can scan the log channels along with the normal channels, or you can manually access log channels as Channel 1001, Channel 1002, ... Channel 1010. “-1-”, “-2-”, ... “-10-” appear as channel numbers.

•Turn off the data skip feature if it is on.

NOTES • You cannot program frequencies in the log channels. The frequencies in the log channels are deleted when you turn off the scanner.
