What You Hear in the United States
Your HomePatrol-2 receiver has over 10,000 police, fire, ambulance, business, uSlity, and other agencies
set for instant access. You can also listen to weather channels and weather alerts, and you can set your
HomePatrol-2 to monitor weather alerts while it is in a standby state.
NOTE: There are some communica%ons that the public is locked out from monitoring. Your
HomePatrol-2 cannot receive agencies that scramble their communica%ons; it also cannot receive
agencies on private proprietary systems.
Because there are so many different kinds of communicaSons going on, you can turn on specific types of
agencies you want to hear (and turn off those you don't). Tap Menu/Service Types to select these
agencies. Appendix C provides a list of service types and a brief descripSon of them.
What Else Can HomePatrol-2 Do?
Create Favorites Lists
As you find transmissions you like and would like to monitor again, you can save them to a Favorites List.
When you opt to listen to a Favorites List, HomePatrol-2 will monitor only the transmissions on that list.
Avoid Transmissions
You can also select transmissions for HomePatrol-2 to avoid (ignore).
Replay Transmissions
HomePatrol-2's Replay feature acts as an instant replay of the transmissions you've just heard. You can
set how long a period Replay records for instant playback. This period can range from 30 seconds to 240
seconds (4 minutes). While you can replay that recording immediately and conSnue replaying it, you
cannot save it for future listening.
Record Transmissions
With HomePatrol-2, you can tap a bueon and begin recording transmissions. When you begin recording,
HomePatrol-2 adds the Replay recording buffer to the recording. HomePatrol-2 will conSnue recording
unSl you tap again to stop. These recording sessions are saved and can be replayed on demand. Rename
and delete sessions through the Review Recordings screen, accessed through Advanced Menu/Replay
OpAons/Review Recordings (tap on the session to bring up an opSons screen).

most accurate transmissions for your locaSon.
