While using Signal Stalker II, you can lock out 150 frequencies if searching all bands and 50 frequencies while searching PubSafety frequencies. If you lock out 5 frequencies within a 1 MHz segment, the scanner will skip that segment in subsequent sweeps.

If you lock out all the frequencies in a search bank and only that search bank is activated, “All ranges Locked out!” appears and the scanner does not search.

Signal Stalker II still performs a fine step search for locked out signals. Signal Stalker II will not stop on the signal, but scan may take longer.
