the channels except the ones you lock out (see "Locking Out Channels).
Automatic 2-Second Scan Delay
Your scanner stops when it finds a signal, and starts scanning again about
2 seconds after the signal ends. This 2-second delay gives you a chance
to hear a reply to the first signal.
MANUALLY SELECTING A CHANNEL
You can continuously monitor a single channel without scanning. This is
useful if you hear an emergency broadcast and want to hear all the details,
or if you want to monitor a channel you locked out.
To monitor a channel while scanning, press MANUAL, enter the channel
number, then press MANUAL again.
NOTE: When you enter CH1 to CH19, the display shows the channel number
which you enter. When you enter CH20, the display shows "0".
If scanning has stopped at the desired channel, simply press MANUAL
once.
Repeatedly press MANUAL to step through the channels one at a time.
LOCKING OUT CHANNELS
You can set your scanner to scan more efficiently by locking out channels
you do not want to monitor, such as channels with a continuous
transmission.
Enter the channel number you want to lock out and press MANUAL. Then
press LOCKOUT so L/O appears on the display.
NOTES: You can still manually select locked out channels.
You cannot lock out all channels.
To unlock a channel, manually select the channel and press LOCKOUT so L/O
disappears.
LISTENING TO THE WEATHER BAND
The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) has allocated eleven channels
for use by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Your scanner is preprogrammed with seven frequencies available to NOAA.
162.400 MHz 162.500 MHz
162.425 MHz 162.525 MHz
162.450 MHz 162.550 MHz
162.475 MHz
To hear your local forecast and regional weather information, simply press
E/WX. Your scanner scans through the weather band and stops on an active
broadcast. WX appears on the display. If a broadcast is weak, press E/WX
again to continue scanning the weather band.
