FEATURES

Your new RadioShack PRO-2056 50- Channel Home/Mobile Scanner lets you in on all the action. You can quick- ly tune to over 2,000 preprogrammed frequencies and search over 20,000 frequencies that include those used by police and fire departments, ambu- lance services, aircraft communica- tions, amateur radio services, and transportation services. The se- cret to your scanner’s ability to scan so many frequencies is its custom-designed microprocessor — a tiny, built-in computer.

Your scanner is preprogrammed for convenience. By pressing a single but- ton, you can quickly scan those fre- quencies most widely used by public service and other agencies. The scan- ner even lets you group special or inter- esting frequencies into their own bank.

The scanner is compact and versatile. You can use it in your home or mount it in your vehicle.

Your scanner has these special fea- tures:

HyperScanand HyperSearch— so you can scan up to 100 channels per second and search up to 100 steps (frequency intervals) per second, pro- viding faster scan and search speed than many other scanners.

Service Search — at the press of a button, lets you scan preset frequen- cies in separate police, fire/emergen- cy, marine, and air service search banks, to make it easy to quickly iden- tify calls. You can also add frequen- cies to channels in the police and fire/ emergency service search banks.

Band Search — lets you search for transmissions within 11 preset fre- quency ranges, so you can quickly find interesting frequencies.

PRIVATE Bank — lets you store up to 20 frequencies that you find while scanning or searching, so you can group unusual or special frequencies together for fast access.

One-Touch Weather Scanning — quickly tunes to National Weather Ser- vice broadcasts, so you can keep cur- rent on important weather information.

Lock-Out Function — lets you lock out specified channels, so you can skip over those channels while scanning.

Memory Backup — keeps the fre- quencies stored in memory for up to 5 days during a power loss.

Backlit Display — makes the display easy to read in low light conditions.
