FEATURES
Your new RadioShack PRO-79 200 Channel VHF/Air/UHF
Handheld Scanner lets you scan conventional transmissions,
and is preprogrammed with search banks for convenience. By
pressing a single button, you can quickly search those frequen-
cies most commonly used by public service and other agencies
without tedious and complicated programming.
This scanner gives you direct access to over 25,000 exciting fre-
quencies, including those used by police and fire departments,
ambulance services, and amateur radio services, and you can
change your selection at any time.
Your scanner also has these special features:
Four Service Banks — let you search preset frequencies in sep-
arate ham radio, police/fire/emergency, aircraft, and marine
banks, to make it easy to locate specific types of calls.
Display Backlight — makes the scanner easy to read in low-
light situations.
Duplicate Channel Alert — warns you when the frequency you
are storing already exists in memory.
Lockout Function — lets you set your scanner to skip over
specified channels or frequencies when scanning or searching.
Memory Backup — keeps the channel frequencies stored in
memory for about an hour in the event of a power loss.
Ten Channel-Storage Banks — you can store 20 channels in
each bank (200 total channels), letting you group channels so
you can more easily identify calls.
20 Monitor Memories — let you temporarily save up to 20 fre-
quencies you locate during a search, so you can move selected
frequencies to channel storage later.
Direct Search — lets you search for new and unlisted frequen-
cies starting from a specified frequency.
