Using the 2-Second Delay
Many agencies use a two-way radio system that has a period of several seconds between a query and a reply. To avoid missing a reply, you can program a 2-second delay into any channel. When the scanner stops on an active channel with a programmed delay, it continues to monitor the channel for 2 seconds after the activity stops before resuming scanning.
To program a 2-second delay into a specific channel while the scanner is scanning, manually select the desired channel then press DELAY. D appears on the display.
To program a 2-second delay when the scanner has stopped on an ac- tive channel during scanning, quickly press DELAY while the channel number is displayed. D appears on the display.
