Search Skip Memory

You can skip up to 20 specified frequencies during a band or direct search. This lets you avoid unwanted frequencies or ones you have al- ready stored in a channel.

To skip a frequency, press L-OUT/S/Swhen the scanner stops on the fre- quency during a band or direct search. The scanner stores the frequen- cy in memory and resumes the search.

To clear a single frequency from skip memory so the scanner can stop on it during a band or direct search, press HOLD/BAND to hold the search, press t or s to select the frequency, then press L-OUT/S/Suntil L disappears from the display.

To clear all the skip frequencies at once, while in the search mode, press HOLD/BAND, then press and hold L-OUT/S/Suntil the scanner beeps twice (about 3 seconds).

Notes:

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

You can select the skipped frequency when the scanner is in the hold mode. The scanner displays L when you select a skipped fre- quency.
