finding and storing active frequencies
You can search for transmissions in the scanner’s preprogrammed search bank. The search bank is
divided into seven search bands. You can change the search range of Bank SR6 manually by setting
the lower and higher ends of the search range.
Notes:
•
You can use the scanner’s delay feature while searching the search bank. See “Using Delay”.
•
The scanner does not search locked-out frequencies while searching ranges. See “Locking Out
Channels or Frequencies”.

Limit search (User changeable)
Follow these steps to select preprogrammed search bands and search them for active frequencies:
1. Repeatedly press SRCH to select your desired search bank (SR0, SR1, SR2, SR3, SR4, SR5, or
SR6).
2. In the Marine, CB, and FRS/GMRS/MURS bands, you can directly select a channel or search
through the band. When MAN appears at the right of the third line, you can directly select a
channel (refer to “Band Charts”). Press the desired channel number while MAN appears to select it.
You can also change the channels by pressing /¥ or ¥/.
3. Press FUNC then SRCH while MAN appears. MAN changes to SRCH and now you can search
through the band. Press FUNC then SRCH again to return to the previous mode.
4. Rotate SQ clockwise and leave it set to a point just after the rushing sound stops. After 2 seconds
(if the delay feature is on), the scanner starts searching.
5. When the scanner finds an active frequency, it stops searching.
