Radio Shack PRO-99 Scanner User Manual

To find the birdies in your
individual scanner, begin by
disconnecting the antenna and
moving it away from the scanner.
Make sure that no other nearby
radio or TV sets are turned on
near the scanner. Use the search
function and search every
frequency range from its lowest
frequency to the highest.
Occasionally, the searching will
stop as if it had found a signal,
often without any sound. That is a
birdie. Make a list of all the birdies
in your scanner for future
reference.
