choice when saving or loading V-Scanner data. During this period the scanner is transferring V-Scanner data to or from working memory.

using digital AGC

You may ﬁnd that the audio level varies greatly among different users on digital systems that you monitor. Many analog conventional and trunked radio systems include components with automatic gain control to help normalize the audio levels of analog transmissions in the system. Digital radio systems typically do not include any automatic gain control functionality and tend to reproduce a user’s voice audio signal more faithfully with regard to audio levels. This can result in a low level audio signal if a user on the system is not speaking close enough to their radio microphone. Your PRO-2096 features Digital AGC, which can compensate for these low audio levels when they occur. By default, Digital AGC is turned on. If desired, you can toggle the Digital AGC function on or off by pressing FUNC, and then MAN

at any time. The display will brieﬂy show DSP AGC Off or DSP AGC On accordingly. Digital AGC has no effect on analog transmissions. You may notice more background noise with Digital AGC on.

cloning programmed data

You can transfer the contents of the current scanner working memory to and from another PRO-2096 or PRO-96 scanner using an optional connecting cable with 1/8-inch (3.5 mm) phone plugs on both ends (use RadioShack part number

42-2420 available at your local RadioShack store), or to a computer application designed to work with this scanner using a PC interface cable (use RadioShack part number 20- 289, available at your local RadioShack store).
