Programming Tips
Do not program a weather frequency into one of the channels, since weather channels
transmit continuously.
Use
W
to select the weather information band.
Group similar frequencies into adjacent channels.
For example, program police frequencies in channels 1 through 10 and fire/emergency into
channels 11 through 20, and so on.
Put the frequency that you listen to the most or the most important frequency into a Priority
channel.
To quickly program a series of channels, start with the lowest number channel.
For example, when you are programming five new frequencies into Channels 4 through 8,
start with Channel 4. After you finish programming a channel, press
m
or
h
to go to
the next higher channel.
Record channels and frequencies in some convenient place in case the scanner memory is
lost.
