BANK 1

DLY

Example shows entering bank 1 channel 00.

Note: If you entered an invalid bank or channel number, Error appears and the scanner beeps. Enter a valid bank or channel.

5.Use the number keys to enter the frequency, pressing •/CLR/DELAY for the decimal point.

6.Press ENT/PROGRAM to store the frequency into the channel.

7.To program the next channel in sequence, press S or T and repeat Steps 5 and 6.

Notes:

If you entered an invalid frequency in Step 5, Error appears and the scanner beeps. Enter a valid frequency.

If you entered a frequency in Step 5 that already exists on another channel, the scanner beeps and displays that channel. Press •/CLR/ DELAY to clear the display, or press ENT/PROGRAM to store the frequency in both channels.

The scanner automatically rounds the entered number to the nearest valid frequency. For example, if you enter 151.473 (MHz), your scanner accepts it as 151.475.

After a transmission, the scanner automatically pauses for 2 seconds on the channel before proceeding to the next active transmission. Press •/CLR/DELAY to turn the delay function on or off. The scanner stores this setting in the channel.

If you do not have a list of frequencies in your area, you can use a fine tune or service search to find transmissions. You can also use an online resource such as www.radioreference.com.
