Feature Highlights

Trunk TrackerIII Operation – Follows conversations on analog Motorola, EDACS, and LTR trunked radio systems.

500 Channels – Program one frequency into each channel. You must have at least one channel programmed to use the scan mode.

10 Banks – Each bank contains 50 channels, large enough for even the largest trunked systems or useful for storing similar frequencies to maintain faster scanning cycles.

Signal Strength Meter – Your scanner’s signal strength meter displays the relative strength of an active transmission, using up to five separate indicators.

CTCSS and DCS Squelch Modes – prevent interference from stations not using the mode you select.

Subaudible Tone Search – Lets the scanner search for and identify agencies transmitting CTCSS or DCS tones. You can identify up to 50 CTCSS tones and 104 DCS tones. This helps you find stations using these tones.

17 Bands – Includes 17 bands, with Aircraft and 800 MHz.

25 MHz-956 MHz – Your scanner covers an extensive frequency range so you can monitor most of the transmissions in your area.

Note: The scanner’s frequency coverage is not continuous and does not include the cellular telephone band.

10 Priority Channels – You can assign one priority channel in each bank. Assigning a priority channel lets you keep track of activity on your most important channel(s) while monitoring other channels for transmissions.

VFO (Variable Frequency Oscillator) Control – Turn the large rotary tuner to select a desired frequency or channel.

AutoStore – Automatically stores all active frequencies within the specified bank(s).

Weather Alert – Lets your scanner alert you when a SAME weather alert is transmitted on a NOAA weather channel. The scanner also displays information about the SAME alert. This helps you quickly find out about severe weather in your area and lets you avoid false alarms.

Weather Search – Lets your scanner receive your local NOAA weather transmission.

Chain Search – Lets your scanner search up to 10 ranges by selecting specific banks into which you have programmed search ranges.

Frequency Step – Lets you select a frequency step (5, 6.25, 12.5, or 25 kHz) for manual mode and chain search mode.
