Thank you for purchasing your Pro-2054 300 channel Mobile/Base scanner from 
RadioShack. You can mount your scanner in a fixed position and use it as a base scanner or 
you can use it as a mobile scanner by mounting it in a vehicle. This scanner lets you scan 
conventional transmissions, and is preprogrammed with search banks for convenience. By 
pressing a one touch search key, you can quickly search those frequencies most commonly 
used by public service and other agencies without tedious and complicated programming.
