About Your Scanner
We use a few simple terms in this manual to explain the features
of the scanner. Familiarize yourself with these terms and the
scanner's features, and you can put the scanner to work for you
right away. Simply determine the type of communications you
want to receive, then set the scanner to scan those
communications.
A frequency, expressed in kHz or MHz, is the tuning location of a
station. To find active frequencies, you use the search function
or refer to a frequency reference.
Besides searching within a selected frequency range, you can
also search your scanner's service banks. Service banks are
preset groups of frequencies categorized by the type of services
that use those frequencies.
When you search and find a desired frequency, you can store it
into a programmable memory location called a channel.
Channels are grouped into channel-storage banks. The scanner
has 10 channel-storage banks and each bank has 10 channels.
You can scan the channel-storage banks to see if there is
activity on the frequencies stored there.
