ELECTING CHANNELS MANUALLY
It is possible to constantly monitor one frequency for
an unspecified amount of time without scanning.
For example, you might stumble onto an exciting
exchange between police officers in a foot pursuit.
Because there will be periods of silence between the
officers' transmissions to one another, you will have to
manually select this frequency or risk the scanner
taking an inopportune moment of silence to start
scanning for more active frequencies.
• If the scanner is scanning and lands on the
frequency you want to monitor, quickly press the
MANUAL button.
• If the scanner is scanning and you know the channel
you want to monitor, press the MANUAL button to
stop the scan. Enter the channel number and press the
MANUAL button again.
• If the scanner is not scanning, enter the number for
the channel you want to monitor and press the
MANUAL button again.
NOTE: Do not press the MANUAL button additional
times unless you want to step through the channels.

SING DELAY
Some agencies use two-way radios that allow for pause
between transmissions. To avoid missing the reply to a
query, your scanner has been equipped with a Delay
button that allows you to pause on a specific
frequency for longer than the scanner would normally
allow.
To activate Delay for a specific channel, select the
stored channel and press DELAY until DLY appears in
the display. The scanner will now pause for two
additional seconds before resuming its scan after the
end of the transmission on that frequency.
