FEATURES

Your new Radio Shack PRO-29 60-Channel Direct Entry Programma- ble Scanner lets you in on all the action! This scanner gives you direct access to 30,000 exciting frequencies that include police department, fire department, ambulance, amateur radio, and transportation services. You can select up to 60 channels for your scanner 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 custom-designed microprocessor — a tiny, built-in computer. Your scanner also has these special features:

Frequency Search — scans through every available frequency.

Six Channel-Storage Banks — let you store 10 channels in each of six banks to group frequencies. This helps you identify calls.

Monitor Memories — let you temporarily save up to six channels you locate during a frequency search.

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

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

Lock-Out Function — keeps channels you select from being scanned.

Priority Channel — checks your most important channel every 2 sec- onds so you don’t miss important calls on a channel you specify.

Weather Band Key — scans seven preprogrammed weather frequen- cies so you can hear about current weather conditions.

Display Backlight — makes the scanner easy to read in low light situ- ations.

Search Skip — lets you select up to 30 frequencies for the scanner to skip during a limit or direct search to avoid unwanted frequencies.
