Data Skip

A scanner normally stops on any transmission it receives.

That means your BC860XLT will stop on data signals and unmodulated transmissions. You can skip these frequencies by using the Data Skip function.

You can set Data Skip in Scan and Search modes.

Turn it on or off in each mode separately.

Note: Data Skip does not function on AM Aircraft frequencies (108-137 MHz).

To activate Data Skip in Scan:
