QUICK START
To help familiarize yourself with the scanner’s functions,
keypad, and available frequencies, you can utilize one of
these three features before you begin programming the
scanner.
Preprogrammed Search Banks
— allow you to listen to
frequencies and decide which frequencies you want to
store when you are ready to program the scanner. See
“Searching a Preprogrammed Frequency Range” on
Page 30.
Manual Tuning
— allows you to manually scan through
the entire range of available frequencies without pro-
gramming. (See “Specifications” on Page 81 for a list of
the available frequency ranges.) Also, see “Deleting Fre-

Weather Radio
— allows you to listen to NOAA weather
broadcasts without programming. See “Listening to the
Weather Band” on Page 37.
