weather channel with a digitally-encoded SAME signal when an alert is broadcast, the scanner will decode and display the SAME message, showing the type of alert being broadcast (or Unknown Message if it does not recognize the event code).

To set the scanner to decode and display SAME mes- sages, press FUNC then WX while you listen to the weather channel. DIG WX STBY and Cancel : F+WX appear.

To set the scanner out of the SAME standby mode, press FUNC then WX again. DIG WX STBY disappears.

Notes:

The scanner does not display the actual location referenced by SAME messages. It uses only the message portion of the SAME signal.

Your scanner can also receive weather alert tones (see “Priority” on Page 43).

USING THE DELAY FUNCTION

Note: Delay is automatically set as the default for each channel when you turn on the scanner.

Many conversations might have a pause of several sec- onds between a query and a reply. To avoid missing a reply, you can program a 2-second delay into any of your scanner’s channels. Then, when the scanner stops on the channel, D appears and the scanner continues to monitor the channel for 2 seconds after the transmission stops before it resumes scanning or searching.

To turn delay on or off, press FUNC then DELAY.
