Follow these steps to manually store a
frequency into a channel.
1. If the scanner is scanning, press
MANUAL.
2. Using the number keys, enter the
channel number where you want to
store a frequency.
3. Press PROGRAM. BANK and the
bank number, the selected channel
number and L/O (if the selected
channel number is empty), and
000.000 (or the previously pro-
grammed frequency) appear.
4. Using the number keys, enter the
frequency you want to store into that
channel, including the decimal point.
Note: Your scanner automatically
rounds the entered frequency up to
the closest valid frequency. For
example, if you try to enter a fre-
quency of 151.473, your scanner
accepts it as 151.475.
5. Press E to store the frequency. If the
channel was locked out, the lockout
is removed.
Note: If you entered an invalid fre-
quency in Step 4, the scanner dis-
plays Error. Press CLEAR, then
repeat Steps 4 and 5.
6. To program the next channel in
sequence, repeat Steps 3–5. To pro-
gram another channel (not in
sequence), repeat Steps 2–5.
SEARCHING FOR AND TEMPORARILY STORING ACTIVE FREQUENCIES
You can search for transmissions using
either a band or direct search, then tem-
porarily store the frequencies for those
transmissions into monitor memories.
Notes:
If you manually tune to a search ski p
frequency, the display shows L/O
(see “Skipping Frequencies/Chan-
nels” on Page 19).
• You can use the scanner’s delay
feature while using band or direct
search. See “Delay” on Page 19.

Band Search

Using band search, you can select a fre-
quency band and search for transmis-
sions within only that band.
1. Repeatedly press BAND until you
see the frequency band you want to
search.
The scanner displays or , the
range for each frequency band, b
appears, and the number of the cur-
rent monitor memory blinks on the
display. Then the scanner starts to
search the frequencies in the band.
When the scanner finds a transmis-
sion, it stops and displays the fre-
quency until the transmission stops,
then the scanner starts searching
again.
