Using dedicated Limit and Service search modes
The SRCH key provides immediate access to the dedicated search modes of your ADV0801.
Pressing the SRCH key cycles through each search mode in this order: Limit, Railroad, Public
Safety, Aircraft, Ham, CB, Marine, and FRS/GMRS/MURS/DOT.
LMIT Search Mode
Your scanner's dedicated LMIT search mode provides you with the ability to create a limit
search with a search frequency range between upper and lower limit frequencies that you
specify and perform the limit search directly without creating a new LMIT object. You can then
monitor that frequency range for transmissions.
To enter LMIT mode, press the SRCH key on the keypad repeatedly until the display indicates
LMIT search.
Use the Lmts softkey to set the lower and upper frequency limits for your limit search.
