ID Lockout
Like conventional scanning, it’s possible to lockout
unwanted traffic. This is particularly important in trunked
systems because in many areas, water meters, door
alarms, traffic signals, and other mechanical devices are
assigned IDs just like other users. Also some departments
scramble or encrypt their communications, and you may
want to lock out these unintelligible broadcasts.
To lockout an ID,
press when the
ID displays.
The ID is locked out,
and the next active ID
displays. You can
lockout up to 200 IDs.
Note: If you lockout an ID in Search mode, it is also
locked out in Scan List mode. Conversely, if you
lockout an ID while in Scan List mode, it is locked
out in Search mode. For information about Scan
Lists see page 48.

until you hear two
short beeps.
2. Use or
to select the ID you
want to unlock.
3. Press .
The ID is unlocked
and the next locked ID
displays.
4. Press to return to
the Search mode.
