Delay
Many agencies use a two-way radio system that might have a pause of
several seconds between a query and a reply. Your scanner's delay feature
causes it to wait for 2 seconds after each transmission on a channel
before it resumes scanning or searching.
To program a 2 second delay for a channel you select, manually select the
channel then press DELAY until DLY appears.
To program a 2 second delay for a channel while scanning, quickly press
DELAY when the channel appears on the display. DLY appears.
To turn off delay on any active channel, press DELAY when the channel
appears on the display. DLY disappears.
Skipping Frequencies/Channels
You can scan channels and search for frequencies faster by skipping ones
that have a continuous transmission, such as a weather channel. You can
skip up to 20 frequencies during a band, direct, or service bank search,
and you can skip all channels.
To skip a channel/frequency while scanning or searching, press L/OUT/S/S
when the scanner stops on it.
Removing Skip from Frequencies
To remove the skip from a frequency while searching, press 91-100/0 to
stop the search, press /\ or \/ to select the skipped frequency, then
press L/OUT/S/S until L/O disappears from the display. To remove the skip
from all frequencies at once while searching, press and hold down
L/OUT/S/S until the scanner beeps twice.
Notes: If you skip more than 20 frequencies, each new frequency replaces
earlier ones, starting from the first stored frequency.
You can manually select skipped frequencies after you press
91/100/0 to stop a search. The scanner displays L/O when you
select a skipped frequency.
Removing Skip from Channels
To remove the skip from a channel while scanning, press MANUAL to stop the
scan, use the number keys to enter the channel number, then press
L/OUT/S/S until L/O disappears from the display. To remove the skip from
all channels at once while scanning, select the banks containing the
locked channels, press MANUAL, then press and hold down L/OUT/S/S until
the scanner beeps twice.
Priority
The priority feature lets you scan through programmed channels and still
not miss important or interesting calls on specific channels. You can
program one stored channel to each bank as a priority channel (up to 10
