FEATURES
Your new Radio Shack PRO-28 30 Channel Direct Entry Programmable
Scanner lets you in on all the action! This scanner gives you direct ac-
cess to more than 20,000 frequencies that include the police depart-
ment, fire department, ambulance, amateur radio, and transportation
services. You can select up to 30 channels for your scanner to scan and
you can change your selection at any time.
The secret to your scanner’s ability to scan so many frequencies is its
custom-designed microprocessor — a tiny, built-in computer. Your
scanner also has these special features:
8-Digit Liquid Crystal Display
— shows channel and frequency num-
bers as well as mode and status indicators.
30 Programmable Channels
— let you store frequencies into the scan-
ner’s memory.
Band Search
— lets you search the frequency bands for active fre-
quencies, and direct the search upward or downward through the
bands.
Direct Search
— lets you search from the current frequency.
Lockout Function
— lets you set your scanner to skip over specified
channels while scanning.
Search Skip
— lets you select up to 20 frequencies for the scanner to
skip during a band or direct search to avoid unwanted frequencies.
Monitor Memory
— lets you temporarily store a frequency you locate
during a frequency search, which you can then transfer into a channel.
Two-Second Scan Delay
— lets you delay scanning for 2 seconds be-
fore moving to another channel, so you can hear more replies.
Weather Band Key
— scans seven preprogrammed weather frequen-
cies so you can hear about current weather conditions.
