During auto store, the scanner beeps when the search reaches the upper limit

Band Search
If you do not know of a frequency to store, you can search your scanner's
preprogrammed search bands for active frequencies, then store any that you find into
your scanner's channels or monitor memories.
Notes:
l
You can use the scanner's delay feature while using band search. See "Delay"
on Page 25.
l
During band search, you can manually change the band mode. See "Changing
the AM/FM/WFM Receive Mode." If you select WFM, the scanner searches
frequencies at 50 kHz steps.
Follow these steps to search for and store active frequencies using band search.
1. Press BAND. The last selected band number (b followed by a number, such as
b02), SEARCH, and the associated frequency search range appear on the display.
2. To select a different band, enter the desired band number (01-23, see Page 3 for
Search Bands) or repeatedly press BAND or turn TUNE knob until the desired band
number appears on the display. Press and hold /\ for about a second to search from
the lower to the upper band edge, or press and hold \/ for about a second to search
from the upper to the lower band edge. /\ or \/ appears on the display.
Notes:
l
To reverse the rapid search direction at any time, press and hold /\ or \/ for about
1 second.
l
To search the band upward or downward in small increments (in steps of 5, 12.5,
25, or 50 kHz, depending on the band), press and release /\ or \/.
l
To quickly move upward or downward through the range of frequencies, press
and hold down /\ or \/. The scanner tunes through the frequencies until you
release /\ or \/.
