SEARCHING FOR AND TEMPORARILY STORING ACTIVE FREQUENCIES

You can search for frequencies using a limit or direct search, then either skip selected frequencies or tempo- rarily store frequencies into monitor memories.

Limit Search

A limit search lets you search for ac- tive transmissions within a specified range of frequencies.

Note: You can use the scanner’s de- lay feature while using limit search (see “Delay”).

Follow these steps to search for ac- tive frequencies.

1.Press PGM, then LIMIT. Lo and a frequency appear on the display.

2.Using the number keys, enter the lowest frequency (including the decimal point) you want to search within the desired fre- quency range, then press

ENTER.

Note: If you enter an invalid fre- quency, Error appears on the display. To correct this, simply repeat the step.
