Using the Scanner Memories
Using the Scanner Memories
Your scanner has 100 memories you can
store frequencies into for scanning. The
memories are arranged in 10 banks of 10
memories each. While scanning, you can
quickly select which bank to scan by pressing
the number button that corresponds to the
bank you want to turn on or off for scanning.
To select the scanner mode, slide the mode
switch to Scanner.
Programming Memories
You will first need to determine the frequencies you want to program.
This varies widely depending on what you want to listen to and your
geographic area. There are many frequency reference sources available
on the internet that can get you started. One such source,
http://www.radioreference.com, has a diverse listing of many conventional
frequencies. You might also search for regional hobbyist sites that cover
your area or check the database at the FCC’s General Menu
(http://www.fcc.gov) for frequencies of interest.
Make a list of the frequencies you want to program, then organize them in
up to 10 groups of 10 or fewer and fill out the table below. It always helps
to plan and organize what you want to do before you start, so don’t skip
this important step. (The numbers in the left-hand columns below
correspond to your scanner’s memory numbers.)
