Birdie Frequencies
All scanners have birdie frequencies, which are
signals created inside a scanner that can cause
interference.
To find the birdies in your scanner:
1.
Disconnect the antenna, and make sure that no
other nearby radio or TV sets are turned on near
the scanner.
2.
Search every frequency range from its lowest
frequency to the highest. Occasionally, the
searching will stop as if it has found a signal,
often without any sound. This is a birdie.
3.
Make a list of all the birdies in your scanner for
future reference.
