100 User Programmable RX Channels
The UH8050S has 100 receive only channels (CH81 to CH180) which can be
programmed with frequencies ranging from 400-520MHz (in 12.5kHz steps). The extra
RX channels only appear, as part of the CB channel bank, when a frequency has been
programmed to a channel. There are three ways to programme RX channels;
1. If you know the frequency you may manually programme it to a channel.
2. Store a Police or Fire (& Ambulance) frequency to a channel.
3. Use the Close Call RF Capture feature to find a nearby strong signal & store this
frequency to a channel.
Furthermore, the RX channels can be Alpha Tagged (given a name) if desired.
