SCANNING THE STORED
CHANNELS
To begin scanning channels, press

. The scanner
scans through all non-locked channels in the activated
banks. (See “Locking Out Channels” on Page 34 and
“Turning Channel-Storage Banks On and Off” on
Page 33). When the scanner finds a transmission, it
stops on it. When the transmission ends, the scanner
resumes scanning.
Notes:
• If you have not stored frequencies into any chan-
nels, the scanner does not scan.
• If the scanner picks up unwanted, partial, or very
weak transmissions, turn
SQUELCH
clockwise to
decrease the scanner's sensitivity to these signals.
If you want to listen to a weak or distant station,
turn
SQUELCH
counterclockwise.
•If
SQUELCH
is adjusted so you always hear a hiss-
ing sound, the scanner does not scan properly.
• To scan in the trunk tracking mode, see “Scanning
a Trunked Bank” on Page 43.

scanning. This is useful if you hear an emergency

— or if you want to monitor a specific channel.
Follow these steps to manually select a channel.
