Your scanner’s Signal Stalker feature lets you detect strong signals in a wide bandwidth of approx. 1 MHz
to search transmission quickly.
Using the Signal Stalker
Your scanner’s Signal Stalker functions when you press and hold SCAN more than 1 second. The Signal
Stalker function has two kinds of bands, All Band and Police/Fire Band. You can turn on/off sub-band
using numeral key.
Note: While the Signal Stalker functions, priority feature does not work.
Lock Out While Signal Stalker Functions
The scanner’s lock out feature works while Signal Stalker functions. When the scanner has more than 2
lockout frequencies in a band stage, it does not detect and skips the band stage.
To lock out a signal, press L/OUT when the scanner stops on the frequency. To remove the lockout, review
the lockout frequency and press L/OUT.
To review the lockout frequency, press FUNC then L/OUT during Signal Stalker. The scanner indicates
“Review L/O” on the first line, and the locked-out frequency, group number, and band stage number on the
third line. It is indicated whether it is the lockout of what number in the last line. You can move to the next
lockout frequency using up or down key.
Scanning the Channels
To begin scanning channels or to start scanning again after monitoring a specific channel,
press SCAN.
Notes:
• You must store frequencies into channels before the scanner can scan them. The scanner does not scan
through empty channels.
• To change the scanning direction, press ^ or v.
The scanner scans through all channels (except those you have locked out) in the active banks (see
“Turning Channel-Storage Banks Off and On” on Page XX and “Locking Out Channels or Frequencies” on
Page XX).
Turning Channel-Storage Banks Off and On
To turn off banks while scanning, press the bank's number key so the bank's number disappears. For
