Programming Conventional Channels; Select A Channel To Program; Enter The Frequency - Uniden BC296D Owner's Manual

Conventional Channels
Each bank can hold a mix of conventional channels plus one
trunking system. This section describes how to store known
frequencies into conventional channels. The first few sections
are intended to be performed in the order indicated if you are
entering information the first time. If you are editing existing
information, manually select the channel, then use the
complete menu process to access the information you want to
change.
Note: To quickly store only a frequency in a channel,
manually select the channel, enter the frequency, then
press E. Do not use this method for Trunking systems,
however, as these systems require additional
information to scan correctly.

1. Select a Channel to Program

To start, first select the channel you want to program:
2:SCAN OPTION → 1:CONVENTIONAL
Enter the channel number, then press E.

2. Enter the Frequency

a. Press 1 or highlight 1:FREQUENCY and press E.
b. Enter the frequency you want to program, then press E.
Notes: • If the channel already had a frequency
programmed, it appears above the prompt.
• If you select a frequency that is not valid, the
scanner displays ERROR OUT OF BAND.
Enter a correct frequency to continue.
• If you enter a frequency that has already been
stored in the scanner, the scanner displays
WARNING DUPLICATE and the channel
number that contains the duplicate. To save the
frequency anyway, press E. Otherwise, press
to cancel and enter a different frequency.
• If you change an existing frequency, all other
information stored for that channel is deleted or set
back to default values.
