To clear all the search skip frequencies at once, during a search, press HOLD, then hold down S/S until the scanner beeps twice (about 3 sec- onds).

Notes:

If you skip all the frequencies in the weather band, the scanner will not start searching. In this case, the scanner sounds three beeps.

If you program more than 20 frequencies to skip, each new fre- quency replaces one you already stored, starting from the first fre- quency you stored.

You can manually select a skipped frequency. L/O appears on the display when you select a skipped frequency.

MANUALLY SELECTING A CHANNEL

You can continuously monitor a single channel without scanning. This is useful if you hear an emergency broadcast on a channel and do not want to miss any details — even though there might be periods of si- lence — or if you want to monitor a specific channel.
