Storing Frequencies

Follow these steps to store frequencies into your scan- ner’s channels.

1.Press PGM. PGM appears on the display to indicate the scanner is in the programming mode.

2.Use the number keys to enter the channel number (1-50) where you want to store the frequency, then press PGM again. Or, repeatedly press PGM until the desired channel number appears.

Notes:

•If you enter an invalid channel number, Error appears on the display. Simply repeat this step.

•If a frequency is currently stored in the selected channel, the channel number does not flash but the current frequency number appears on the dis- play. You can either repeat this step to select a dif- ferent channel, or replace the current frequency with a new one.

3.Use the number keys and ./DLY to enter the fre- quency (including the decimal point) you want to store in that channel.
