Set Modulation

Auto - the scanner uses the default modulation for the frequency band.

AM - the scanner uses AM (amplitude modulation) for the frequency band.

FM - the scanner uses FM (frequency modulation) for the frequency band.

NFM - the scanner uses narrowband FM for the frequency band.

WFM - the scanner uses wideband FM for the frequency band.

Note: The default setting is Auto.

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