Searching for Active Frequencies
Searching for Active Frequencies
Many people enjoy searching for the unknown frequencies that are in
use in their area but are not posted to any site or in any publication. The
UBC340CRS has two ways to search: Limit searching that searches
between two set frequencies and Service Searching that searches for
specific types of services.
Using Limit Search
Programming an Upper/Lower Limit
Follow these steps to program an Upper and Lower limit for the limit
search:
1. Press
SEARCH then HOLD. The scanner holds on the current search
frequency.
2. Enter one of the range limits, then press
E/PGM.
Press
s or t then enter the other range limit , and press E/PGM.
Searching the Selected Range
After entering the limits (or use the default limits), press SEARCH. The
scanner starts searching from the lower range up to the higher range.
To change the direction of the search, press s or t.
Using Service Search
You can select any of Police, Marine, Rail Road, AM-CB and UHF-CB
channels for active frequencies in your area.
Selecting a Service to Search
Press SVC to enter the service search mode, then press the button
corresponding to the service you want to search. When the scanner
stops on a transmission, you can force it to resume searching by pressing
s or t.
Setting Channel Delay
You can set the scanner to pause for 2 seconds at the end of a
transmission on a memory. This is useful to help prevent missed replies.
Delay is turned on by default when you program a memory. To turn Delay
off (or back on), first, select the channel. Then, press DELAY.
The scanner turns on the DELAY icon for memories that have been
programmed with delay.
