The Close Call feature works better with some types of transmissions than others. It might not correctly display frequency information for transmitters using a highly directional antenna (such as an amateur radio beam antenna) or if there are many transmitters operating at the same time in the same area.

Setting Close Call Options

1.Press Menu then turn the scroll control until Close Call appears. Then press E. Close Call feature options appear.

2.Turn the scroll control to select an option.

Close Call Only: Lets you set the scanner only for Close Call searching. The scanner does not scan frequencies or channels when this option is turned on.

To select this option, press E.

CC Auto Store: Lets you select whether the scanner automatically stores Close Call hits into channels. If you turn this option on, the scanner starts Close Call mode and stores any Close Call hits, up to the maximum you specified in the Max Auto Store setting. If the scanner stores more hits than this setting, it stops Autostore operation.

Turn the scroll control to display an option, then press E.

Set CC Mode: Lets you select the Close Call mode. If you turn this option on (CC DND, CC PRI), the scanner sets itself to its Close Call settings about once every 2 seconds. Turn the scroll control to display an option, then press E. You can also toggle this setting by pressing Func then .

Notes:

CC DND - Close Call does not work while monitoring a transmission.

CC PRI - Close Call works even if there is a transmission.
