Restoring Locked-out IDs

departments scramble or encrust their communications, and you may want to lock out these
unintelligible broadcasts.
To Lockout an ID, press on the ID you want to lockout.
The ID is locked out. You can Lockout up to 100 IDs.
If you Lockout an ID in Search mode, it is also locked out in Scan List mode.

mode. For information about Scan Lists see page 31.
