Your RadioShack PRO-2018 200-Channel Desktop Scanner lets you in on all the action! This scanner gives you direct access to over 25,000 frequencies, including those used by police and fire departments, ambulance services, government agencies, air, and amateur radio services. You can select up to 200 channels to scan, and you can change your selection at any time.

The secret to your scanner's ability to scan so many frequencies is its built-in microprocessor. Your scanner also has these special features:

Two-Second Scan Delay — delays scanning for 2 seconds before moving to another channel, so you can hear more replies.

Ten Channel-Storage Banks — let you store up to 20 channels in each of 10 different banks, to group channels so you can more easily identify calls.

Memory Backup — keeps the channel frequencies stored in memory for about 1 hour during a power loss.

HyperSearch™ and HyperScan™ — let you set the scanner to search at up to 50 steps per second and to scan at up to 25 channels per second, to help quickly find interesting transmissions.

Duplicate Frequency Check — automatically notifies you if you are about to store a frequency you have already stored, to help avoid wasting storage space.

Weather Alert — automatically sounds the alarm tone to advise of hazardous weather conditions when the scanner detects an alert signal on the local NOAA weather channel.

Lock-Out Function — lets you set your scanner to skip over specified channels or frequencies when scanning or searching.

Supplied Telescoping Antenna — lets the scanner

receive strong local signals.

External Antenna Terminal — lets you connect an external antenna (not supplied) to the scanner.
