Your scanner includes these special features:

Simultaneous Trunking Operation — tracks three trunking systems, LTR, Motorola, and EDACS at the same time, as well as conventional systems.

Text Input — lets you input a text label for each channel, talk group ID, bank, or other memory so you can easily know about the transmission you are hearing.

Subaudible Tone Decode — decodes and displays the Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS) tone signal being transmitted.

Digital Subaudible Tone Decode — decodes and dis- plays the Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) being received.

12-Character, 4-Line, Dot-Matrix Display — shows you detailed operating information and lets you easily pro- gram the scanner.

Data Cloning — lets you transfer the programmed data to another PRO-92 scanner. You can also upload or download the programmed data to or from a PC using an optional interface kit.

10 Channel-Storage Banks — let you store 50 channels in each bank to group channels so calls are easier to identify.

Triple Conversion Superheterodyne Receiver — virtu- ally eliminates any interference from intermediate fre- quency (IF) images, so you hear only the frequency you select.

HyperscanTM and HypersearchTM — the scanner scans at up to 25 channels per second and searches at up to 50 steps per second, to help you quickly find interesting transmissions.
