FEATURES

Your new RadioShack PRO-79 200 Channel VHF/Air/UHF Handheld Scanner lets you scan conventional transmissions, and is preprogrammed with search banks for convenience. By pressing a single button, you can quickly search those frequen- cies most commonly used by public service and other agencies without tedious and complicated programming.

This scanner gives you direct access to over 25,000 exciting fre- quencies, including those used by police and fire departments, ambulance services, and amateur radio services, and you can change your selection at any time.

Your scanner also has these special features:

Four Service Banks — let you search preset frequencies in sep- arate ham radio, police/fire/emergency, aircraft, and marine banks, to make it easy to locate specific types of calls.

Display Backlight — makes the scanner easy to read in low- light situations.

Duplicate Channel Alert — warns you when the frequency you are storing already exists in memory.

Lockout Function — lets you set your scanner to skip over specified channels or frequencies when scanning or searching.

Memory Backup — keeps the channel frequencies stored in memory for about an hour in the event of a power loss.

Ten Channel-Storage Banks — you can store 20 channels in each bank (200 total channels), letting you group channels so you can more easily identify calls.

20 Monitor Memories — let you temporarily save up to 20 fre- quencies you locate during a search, so you can move selected frequencies to channel storage later.

Direct Search — lets you search for new and unlisted frequen- cies starting from a specified frequency.
