SEARCHING FOR AND STORING
ACTIVE FREQUENCIES
Your scanner can store up to 51 frequencies. Each fre-
quency can be stored in either a memory called a channel,
or the temporary memory called a monitor. This scanner
has 50 channels and one monitor memory.
You can store frequencies using any of these methods.
• Manually enter and store a specific frequency (see
“Storing Frequencies” on Page 23).
• Search for active frequencies within a range of pre-
programmed frequencies and store selected fre-
quencies in the scanner’s channel memories (see
“Using Band Search” on Page 25).
• Search for active frequencies starting directly from
one specific frequency and store a frequency in the
scanner’s monitor memory (see “Using Direct
Search” on Page 27).
• Recall the monitor memory frequency and move that
frequency to a channel memory (see “Using the
Monitor Memory” on Page 28).
Active Frequency References
Good references for active frequencies are RadioShack’s
Beyond Police Call, Police Call Radio Guide Including Fire
and Emergency Services, Aeronautical Frequency Direc-
tory, and Radio! magazine. We update these references
often, so be sure to get a current copy.
If you do not have a reference to frequencies in your area,
or if you want to search for unlisted frequencies, use a
band search or direct search. See also “Guide to the Ac-
tion Bands” on Page 37 in this manual.
