Scanning Preprogrammed Races

Before You Get To The Track

Each driver’s team has several different frequencies they can use during a race. These frequencies can change depending on local interference sources or other frequency issues. Your scanner is preprogrammed with all of the drivers and their possible frequencies that were known when it was manufactured.

Before you leave for the track, check the Internet to see if there are any frequency updates available for your race. You can save time at the track by setting up as much as possible before you leave.

When You Get To The Track

When you arrive at the race, get a list of the actual frequencies in use that race day. These are normally available for sale on the way into the facility. This list will show the actual frequency being used by each driver that day, as well as some other useful frequency information. Then, follow the steps in the sections below to adjust the scanner settings.
