transmission, it stops on it. When the transmission
ends, the scanner resumes scanning.
Notes:
• If you have not stored frequencies into any
channels, the scanner does not scan.
• If the scanner picks up unwanted partial, or very
weak transmissions, turn Squelch clockwise to
decrease the scanner's sensitivity to these
signals. To listen to a weak or distant station,
turn Squelch counterclockwise.
• To ensure proper scanning, adjust Squelch until
the audio mutes.

Manually Selecting a Channel

You can continuously monitor a single channel
without scanning. This is useful if you hear an
emergency broadcast on a channel and do not want
to miss any details - even though there might be
periods of silence - or if you want to monitor a
specific channel.
To manually select a channel, press Hold, enter the
channel number then press Hold again.
Or, during scanning, if the radio stops at a channel
you want to listen to, press Hold once. (Repeatedly
pressing Hold at this time causes the scanner to
step through the channels.) Press Scan to resume
automatic scanning.
