UNDERSTANDING BANDS/MONITOR
MEMORY
Search Bands
Your scanner can tune over 32,000 different frequencies.
Many of these frequencies are grouped within permanent
memory locations called search bands.
Note:
The actual search range of Band 9 is 806
824 MHz,
849
869 MHz, and 894
960 MHz. The scanner does not
tune any frequencies between 824
849 MHz and 869
894 MHz, to help prevent reception of transmissions you
should not listen to. For more information, see “Scanning
Legally” on Page 6.
