Locking Out Channels; Priority - Radio Shack HANDHELD TRUNKING 20-521 Owner's Manual

The scanner scans all the channels within the dis-
played banks that are not locked out (see "Locking Out
Channels").

• You can manually select any channel within a
bank, even if that bank is turned off.

always be active.

PRIORITY

The priority feature lets you scan through channels and
still not miss important or interesting calls on specific
channels. You can program one stored channel in each
bank as a priority channel (for up to a total of 5 stored
channels). If the priority feature is turned on, as the
scanner scans the bank, it checks that bank's priority
channel every 2 seconds for activity.
The scanner automatically designates each bank's first
channel as its priority channel. Follow these steps to
select a different channel in a bank as the priority chan-
nel.
