radio bands
and look for strong signal activity from nearby transmitters. As you become more familiar with
SWPR operation, you may wish to include or exclude some bands in your sweeps to check other frequency
ranges or to limit the amount of time the scanner spends sweeping frequency ranges where local
transmitter activity is less likely. This will speed up operation, and when used while scanning, will allow the
radio to return to scanning for activity on CONV, TGRP and other enabled objects.
To create a new SWPR object, press PROG to place your scanner into Program Mode, then press the
NEW softkey, then press the SRCH softkey to view the available Search types, then press the SWPR
softkey. By default the SWPR parameters are set for a general purpose sweep of all important land mobile
radio bands. Optionally, you may wish to toggle the Type: field from All Bands to Public Safety by pressing
> on the 5-way pushbutton pad. When Public Safety is selected, the frequency sweep will be limited to
those frequency ranges typically used for Public Safety communications. Note that other radio services
also use these ranges, so don't be surprised if you occasionally hear activity that is not Public Safety
related. The sub-bands are defined as follows:
