Your scanner contains groups of preset frequencies called
One Touch Banks. Each one touch bank is associated with
a specific activity (see “One Touch Banks” on Page 12).
You can search for marine, fire/police, air, ham, and
weather transmissions even if you do not know the specific
frequencies that are used in your area.
±
The fire/police and ham one touch banks have separate
groups of frequencies called sub-banks. This lets you
search for and select only those frequencies that fall within a
specific range within the fire/police and ham one touch banks.
To listen to the marine bank, see “Listening to the Marine
Bank” on Page 19. To listen to the weather bank, see
“Listening to the Weather Band” on Page 19.

automatically assigned to specific channel-storage banks as
shown below. You can quickly scan the channel-storage
banks corresponding to the one touch banks by pressing a
one touch bank key and
