Input a system frequency using the number keys and [.No] key, then press F. If you are entering frequencies for an LTR or EDACS system, the scanner will also prompt you to enter the LCN for the frequency you just entered. LCN’s (logical channel numbers) are provided from the same source where you got the other system information.

To enter additional frequencies, press [MENU], then
