To skip a frequency, press L/O/ SEARCH SKIP when the scanner stops on the frequency during a limit or direct search.

To clear a single frequency from skip memory so the scanner can stop on it during a limit or direct search, press LIMIT to hold the search, press D or

to select the skipped frequency, then press L/O/SEARCH SKIP until LOCKOUT disappears from the dis- play.

Notes:

If you program more than 50 skip frequencies, each new fre- quency replaces earlier ones, starting from the first stored fre- quency.

You can select the skipped fre- quency when the scanner is in the hold mode. The scanner dis- plays LOCKOUT when you select a skipped frequency.

LISTENING TO MONITOR MEMORIES

After you temporarily store frequen- cies into the scanner’s monitor mem- ories, you can listen to them by pressing MANUAL, MON, then the number for the monitor memory you want to listen to.

To clear all the skip frequencies at once, while in the search mode, press and hold L/O/SEARCH SKIP un- til the scanner beeps twice.
