birdies

All radios can receive birdies (undesired signals). If your scanner stops during scan mode and no sound is heard, it may be receiving a birdie. Birdies are internally generated signals inherent in the electronics of the receiver.

Press L/O to lockout the channel, and then press HOLD/RESUME to resume scanning.

replacing the fuse in the DC power cord

2.If the fuse is blown, replace it.

3.To close the fuse holder, push the fuse holder ends together, then turn either end clockwise.
