Automatic Channel Step — Accepts frequencies on any valid channel step, even if it does not fall within the band plan’s default step.

Frequency Step — Lets you select a frequency step (5, 6.25, 7.5, 8.33, 10, 12.5,15, 20, 25, 50 or 100 kHz) for manual mode and search mode.

Text Tagging — You can name each system, group, channel, talk group ID, custom search range, and SAME group, using up to 16 characters per name.

Data Skip — Allows your scanner to skip unwanted data transmissions and reduces the affect of birdies.

Duplicate Frequency Alert — Alerts you if you try to enter a duplicate name or frequency already stored in a system.

Memory Backup — If power is lost or disconnected, the scanner retains the frequencies you programmed in its memory.

Temporary Lockout — Makes it easy to temporarily lock out a system, channel, or frequency. The lockout is cleared when you turn power off, then back on so you don’t have to remember to unlock the channels later.

Startup Configuration — Lets you easily manage multiple configurations for your scanner.

Single-Handed Function Control Operation — You can tap the Function/Scroll Control to enable the Function mode. It reverts to normal mode in about 3 seconds from your last press if no other action occurs.

Record Out Jack — Using the appropriate cable and audio recording device with signal control, you can record live audio of designated channels.

Display and Keypad Backlight — Makes the display and keypad easy to see in dim light using two color options and six light levels plus off.

Vehicle Power Connection (Orange Wire) — Lets you connect to your vehicle’s dimmer circuit to also dim the scanner’s display with the vehicle’s dimmer control.

Trunk Tracker IV™ Operation — Follows unencrypted conversations on analog Motorola, Motorola Astro 25 (APCO 25), EDACS, EDACS SCAT, and LTR trunked radio systems, including systems in VHF, UHF, 700 MHz, 800 MHz, and 900 MHz bands. The scanner can scan both conventional and trunked systems at the same time.

Multi-Site Trunking — Lets you share system channels across multiple sites to more efficiently use the scanner’s memory and more easily select sites to monitor.
