Special Features
Close CallTM RF Capture Technology
Your scanner's Close Call feature lets you set the scanner so it detects then displays the frequency of a nearby strong radio transmission. Close Call RF capture works great for finding frequencies at venues such as malls and sporting events. You can set the scanner so Close Call detection works “in the background” while you are scanning other frequencies, turn off normal scanning while Close Call is working, or turn off the Close Call feature and use the scanner normally. You can set the scanner so it alerts you when the Close Call feature detects a frequency. You can also set the frequency band where you want the scanner to look for transmissions.
Unlike searching, which requires the scanner to tune to a frequency to check for a transmission, Close Call RF capture directly detects the presence of a strong, nearby signal and instantly tunes to the source’s frequency.
Notes:
•Close Call RF capture works well for locating the source of strong local transmissions such as mobile and handheld
•Close Call RF capture cannot detect satellite dishes or any transmitter with a frequency above or below the frequency ranges listed under “Setting the Close Call Options” on Page 34.
