searching the one touch banks
Your scanner contains groups of preset
frequencies called One Touch Banks. Each one
touch bank is associated with a specifi c activity
(see “Band Charts”). You can search for marine,
fi re/police, air, ham, and weather transmissions
even if you do not know the specifi c frequencies
that are used in your area.
You can use the scanner’s delay feature while
searching the banks (see “Using Delay”).
The scanner does not search locked out
frequencies while searching ranges. See
“Locking Out Channels or Frequencies”.
The fi re/police and ham one touch banks have
separate groups of frequencies called sub-banks.
This lets you search for and select only those
frequencies that fall within a specifi c range within
the fi re/police and ham one-touch banks.
The fi re/police one-touch bank contains low
VHF, high VHF, low UHF, and high UHF sub-
banks. The ham one-touch bank contains 10 m,
6 m, 2 m, and 70 cm sub-banks.
To listen to the marine bank, see “Listening to the
Marine Bank”. To listen to the weather bank, see
“Listening to the Weather Band”.
