SPECIAL FEATURES
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 lets it wait for 2
seconds after each transmission on a channel or frequency while scanning or
searching.
To program a 2-second delay for a channel while scanning, manually select the
channel and press FUNC then press DELAY/CL until DELAY appears. When your
scanner stops on the channel, it waits for 2 seconds after each transmission on that
channel before it resumes scanning.
To program a 2-second delay for any active frequency while searching, press FUNC
then press DELAY/CL until DELAY appears. When your scanner stops on a
transmission, it waits for 2 seconds after each transmission on that frequency before
it resumes searching.
LOCKING OUT CHANNELS AND FREQUENCIES
You can scan existing channels or search frequencies faster by locking out channels
or frequencies that have a continuous transmission, such as a weather channel.
To lock out a channel while scanning, press L/OUT when the scanner stops on the
channel. To lock out a channel manually, manually select the channel and press
L/OUT until L/O appears on the display.
To remove the lockout from a channel, manually select the channel and press L/OUT
until L/O disappears from the display.
Notes:
l You can delete the frequencies stored in locked-out channels within a bank. See
"Deleting Frequencies from All Locked-Out Channels Within Bank" on Page 23.
l You can still manually select locked-out channels.
