Limit Search

A limit search lets you search for active frequencies between upper and lower limits that you set. -L-appears on the display during a limit search.

1.Press PROGRAM, then LIMIT. Lo appears on the display.

2.Enter the lower limit of the frequency range you want to search.

3.Press WX/E, then LIMIT. Hi appears on the display.

Note: If the frequency you entered is not a valid frequency, Error appears. To enter a different frequency, start again from Step 2.

4.Enter the upper limit of the frequency range.

5.Press WX/E, then LIMIT. Lo and the lower limit frequency appear on the display.

6.Press t to search from the upper to the lower limit, or s to search from the lower to the upper limit. The current monitor memory number starts flashing at the top of the display.

7.When the scanner stops on a transmission you want to save, press MONITOR to store the frequency in the current monitor mem- ory. The monitor number then stops flashing.

8.Press either t or s to continue the search. If you saved a frequency in a monitor memory, then the monitor memory number on the dis- play advances by one and starts flashing again. (If the last monitor memory was 6, the scanner returns to monitor memory 1.)

9.To hold the frequency, press LIMIT. -H-appears on the display.

To exit the hold mode and resume the limit search, press LIMIT again.

Notes:

You can press t or s during the hold mode to step through the frequencies toward the upper or lower limits.

If you tune to a search skip frequency, the display shows L/O (see “Search Skip Memory”).
