Monitor Memories

The scanner also has 5 temporary memory locations called monitor memories. You can use these monitor memories to temporarily store frequencies while you decide whether to store them into a channel. This is handy for quickly storing an active frequency when you search through an entire band (see “Searching For and Temporarily Storing Active Frequencies” on Page 26).

While you are searching frequencies, the 5 numbers at the top of the display indicate the 5 monitor memories. MON appears and the number beside it that flashes in- dicates the currently active monitor memory.
