Owner`s manual

You can scan existing channels faster by locking out channels that have a
continuous transmission, such as a weather channel.
To lock out a channel while scanning, press L/OUT when the scanner stops on
the channel. To lock out a channel manually, manually select the channel
and press L/OUT until LOCK-OUT shows on the display.
To remove the lockout from a channel, manually select the channel and p ress
L/OUT until LOCK-OUT disappears from the display.
NOTES: You can delete the frequencies stored in locked -out channels within
a bank. See "Deleting Frequencies from Locked -Out Channels within
a Bank."
You can still manually select locked-out channels.
You cannot lock out all channels. There must be at least one
active channel in each bank.
Reviewing Locked-Out Channels
To review which channels are locked out, press MANUAL, then repeatedly
press L/O RVW. As you press L/O RVW, the scanner displays all locked -out
channels.
PRIORITY
With the priority feature, you can scan through programmed channels and
still not miss an important or interesting call on a specific channel. You

Channel 1 in Bank 1 as the priority channel.
Follow these steps to program a channel as the priority channel.
1. Press PROGRAM.
2. Use the number keys to enter the channel number you want to program as
the priority channel, then press PRIORITY. P appears on the display to
the left of the channel number.
To turn on the priority feature, press PRIORITY during scanning. The
scanner checks the priority channel every 2 seconds. It stays on the
channel if there is activity, and PRIORITY appears.
To turn off the priority feature, press PRIORITY. PRIORITY disappears from
the display.
MANUALLY SELECTING A CHANNEL

want to monitor a locked-out channel.
Follow these steps to manually select a channel.
1. Press MANUAL.
2. Use the number keys to enter the channel number you want to hear, then
