Locking Out Frequencies in Search
During search, you might repeatedly encounter frequencies that you are not interested in. Also,
all scanners are subject to receiving internally generated frequencies (called
birdies
) that stop
you scanner’s search when there is no real signal present.
In either case, you can lock out such frequencies to make your scanner search more efficiently.
To do this follow the steps below.
1. When the scanner stops on a frequency you want to
lock out. Press
LOCKOUT
.
2. Find the locked out frequency by pressing
▲
or
▼
.
3. Unlock the frequency by pressing
LOCKOUT
.
Unlocking ALL Frequencies
If you have locked out many frequencies and want to unlock them all, or if you have forgotten
which ones you locked out, you can unlock all frequencies at the same time.
1. Stop search by pressing
HOLD
.
2. Press and hold
LOCKOUT
to unlock all locked frequencies. You will hear two beeps to
confirm that unlocking is done.
