Flexible Antenna with BNC Connector — provides excellent reception and is designed to help prevent an- tenna breakage. Or, you can connect an external an- tenna.

Monitor Memories — let you temporarily store up to 5 frequencies or IDs.

Memory Backup — keeps the frequencies stored in memory for an extended time if the PRO-91 loses pow- er.

Three Power Options — let you power the scanner using internal batteries, external AC power using an optional AC adapter/charger, or DC power using an op- tional DC cigarette-lighter power cable.

Key Confirmation Tones — the scanner sounds a tone when you perform an operation correctly, and an error tone if you make an error.

Battery Save — saves battery power when the scan- ner does not detect any transmissions for more than 5 seconds when a channel is manually selected.

Battery Low Alert — warns you when battery power gets low.

Your scanner can receive these bands:
