The display flashes, and I 

don’t know why.

The channel number on the display will flash 

if the radio is in a Watch mode or in Scan 

mode.
Try turning off scanning, Triple Watch, or 

Dual Watch (see page 12).

Where can I find my radio’s 

serial number?

The serial number is on a plate inside the 

battery compartment.
