you are scanning other frequencies, turn off normal scanning
while Close Call is working, or turn off the Close Call feature
and use the scanner normally. You can set the scanner so it
alerts you when the Close Call feature detects a frequency.
and you can also set the frequency bands where you want the
scanner to look for transmissions.
The scanner also automatically stores the last 10 hits received
into a temporary bank called "Close Call Hits" in any Close
Call mode. The hits go away when you cycle power. You can
also store these temporary frequencies into channel storage
banks.
Close Call capture works well for locating the source of strong
local transmissions such as mobile and handheld two-way
radios in areas with no other strong transmission sources.
However, if you are in an area with many transmission sources
(such as pager radio transmitters, multi-use radio towers,
traffic control devices, etc.), Close Call RF capture might not
find the transmission you are searching for, or it might find a
transmission other than the one you are searching for.
Close Call works better with some types of transmissions than
others. It might not correctly display frequency information
for transmitters using a highly directive antenna (such as an
amateur radio beam antenna), if there are many transmitters
operating at the same time in the same area, or if the
transmitter is a broadcast television station.
