Beyond the Basics

using Signal Stalker II

Your scanner’s Signal Stalker II functions when you press and hold for approximately 1 second. The Signal Stalker

IIfunction can be set to watch for activity on all band

frequencies or Police/Fire frequencies only. To change the all bands to police/fire or vice versa, press FUNC then .

You can also turn on/off frequency sub-bands using the corresponding number keys while Signal Stalker II is active.

Notes

Priority mode is not available while using the Signal

Stalker II.

Press FUNC then e or d, you can change the normal Signal Stalker II operation to the Special Signal Stalker II operation. In the Special Stalker operation, Sp. Stalker appears and the frequency range is divided by 1 MHz segment. If you lock out 5 frequencies within a 1 MHz segment, the scanner will skip that segment in subsequent sweeps. See “Using Signal Stalker II with Lockout” below.

using Signal Stalker II with lockout

The scanner’s lock out feature can be used to bypass unwanted transmissions while using the Signal Stalker II. Press L/OUT when the scanner is stopped on an undesired transmission. Press FUNC L/OUT to review or clear locked out frequencies in the Signal Stalker II. You can lock out 150 frequencies while searching all bands and 50 frequencies while searching Police/Fire frequencies.

Signal Stalker II functions by rapidly sweeping through the RF spectrum in 1 MHz segments. If RF signal energy is detected in a 1 MHz segment, Signal Stalker II will sweep through the 1MHz segment in finer steps until the source of the RF signal energy is found.

Certain segments of RF spectrum are used by high power transmitters, such as paging transmitters. The Signal Stalker II can detect these transmitters easily, even at great distances
