3. Use the number keys and
./DELAY
to enter the frequency
(including the decimal point) you want to store.
If you make a mistake, press

Invalid Freq.
briefl y
appears and the scanner beeps when you press
ENT
. Start
again from Step 3.
Your scanner automatically rounds the entered frequency
to the nearest valid frequency. For example, if you enter a
frequency of 151.553, your scanner accepts it as 151.550.
All scanners tune by steps. Your RadioShack scanner
uses steps consistent with the latest US or worldwide
standards. If you enter a non-valid step frequency, any
scanner will tune to the next step. Some scanner designs
do this without showing the correct step in the display.
This scanner will show the actual tuned frequency in the
display. Because steps are so close together, the audio
quality will not be affected by the offset.
After a transmission, the scanner automatically pauses
for 2 seconds on this channel before proceeding to the
next active transmission. Press
./DELAY
to turn the delay
function off or on. See “Using Delay”. The scanner stores
this setting in the channel.
5. If necessary, press
MODE
to change the receiving mode.
6. If desired, program a text tag for the channel (see
“Assigning a Text Tag to a Channel”).
7. The next channel in sequence is ready for programming.
Press
PGM
then repeat steps 3 through 6.
