Birdie Frequencies
Every scanner has birdie frequencies. Birdies are sig-
nals created inside the scanner's receiver. These operat-
ing frequencies might interfere with transmissions on the
same frequencies. If you program one of these frequen-
cies, you hear only noise on that frequency. If the inter-
ference is not severe, you might be able to turn
SQUELCH
clockwise to omit the birdie.
This scanner's birdie frequencies (in MHz) are:
