Service Search mode.
Custom Search Banks
Custom Search Banks let you program and search 10 custom search
ranges. During custom search, the scanner starts searching with the
lowest frequency in the search range you select to the highest frequency
in the range. You can search any or all of these ranges by turning each
search bank on or off just like channel storage banks in Search mode.
Setting up your Scanner
These guidelines will help you install and use your new scanner. If your
scanner receives interference or electrical noise, move the scanner or its
antenna away from the source. You might also try changing the height or
angle of the rubber antenna.
To improve the scanner’s reception, use an optional external antenna
designed for multiband coverage. (You can purchase this type of
antenna at a local electronics store). If the optional antenna has no
cable, use 50 ohm coaxial cable for lead-in. An adapter plug might be
necessary for the optional antennas.
Use an optional mono earphone or stereo headset with proper
impedance for private listening. Read the precautions on page 65 of this
Owner’s Manual.
Do not use the scanner in high-moisture environments such as the
kitchen or bathroom.
Avoid placing the scanner in direct sunlight or near heating elements or
vents.
Connecting the Antenna
1. Align the slots around the antenna's connector with the tabs
on the scanner's BNC connector.
2. Slide the antenna's connector down over the scanner's
connector.
3. Rotate the antenna connector's outer ring clockwise until it
locks into place.
