Service Bank Search

The scanner is preprogrammed with all the fre- quencies allocated to these services. To use this fea- ture, press SVC. SVC appears and the scanner searches through the weather service band. To select a different service bank, press the desired service bank key (WX1, HAM2, MRN3, AIR4, or POL5).
