About Your New UBC60XLT

The UBC60XL T is a brand new state-of-the-art information

radio with automatic scanning capabilities. It can store

frequencies such as police, fire/emergency, marine, amateur, and other communications into 10 channels.

Feature Highlights

10 Channels Program one frequency in each channel. You

must have at least one channel programmed to use this scanner.

8 Bands, 66 MHz -512 MHz Scan these frequency ranges with your scanner. (Note: The frequency coverage is not totally continuous from 66.0 MHz to 512 MHz.)

Weather Channels Use your scanner as a weather information radio. (Weather Service is currently not available in Australia)

Memory Backup Frequencies programmed in the channels

are retained in memory for at least 1 day, and typically 3 days, when batteries are removed from the scanner.

What is Scanning?

Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way communications (listed below) do not transmit continuously. The UBC60XL T scans programmed channels at the rate of nearly 10 channels per second until it finds an active frequency.

Scanning stops on an active frequency, and remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanner stays on the channel for 2 more seconds after the transmission stops, waiting for another transmission. The scanning cycle then resumes until another transmission is received.

While the UBC60XL T is scanning channels, it is in "SCAN

Mode". When you stop the scanning with CMAD, it is in "MANUAL Mode".
