Finding Repeater Output Frequencies

Srch/CloCall Opt F

Repeater Find

F

On or Off

F

 

This feature sets whether the scanner tries to tune to a repeater output frequency during Custom Search, Quick Search, or Close Call operation when it detects a transmission on a repeater input frequency. Since you can normally only hear one side of a conversation when you listen to an input frequency transmission, turning this feature on can let you hear both sides of the conversation where a standard difference frequency is set between the input and the output, to and from the repeater.

On — The scanner automatically applies repeater reverse to detected transmissions. If the scanner detects the transmission on the output frequency, it beeps, Repeater Found appears, and it remains on the output frequency until transmissions end. If it does not detect a transmission on the output frequency, it remains on the original frequency.

Off — The scanner does not try to find the output frequency.

Setting the Maximum Auto Store Value

[MENU]

Srch/CloCall Opt F

Max Auto Store

F

This value sets how many hits the scanner will automatically store when it is in either Search and Store or Close Call Auto Store mode. Use the number keys to enter a value from 1 - 256, then press F. The default value is 100.

When the scanner exceeds the maximum number of hits you set, it stops the auto-store operation.

Setting the Modulation Type

This setting controls the modulation method used for the frequency band and for Quick Search and Close Call operations. In most cases, if you leave this set to Auto, the scanner automatically selects the correct modulation type for the system you are programming.
