Searching and Tuning

Finding and Storing Active Frequencies

You can search for transmissions using the scanner's preprogrammed search banks.
The search banks include six preprogrammed search ranges, SR0 to SR5. You can
change the search range of Bank SR6 manually by setting the lower and higher ends of
the search range.
Notes
You can use the scanner's delay feature while searching the search bank. See
"Using the Delay Function" on Page 65.
You can set CTCSS or DCS mode when searching any search range, except for SR0,
SR1, and SR4. The scanner will display detected CTCSS or DCS codes depending
on the mode setting. See "Using CTCSS and DCS" on Page 51.
The scanner does not search locked-out frequencies while searching ranges. See
"Locking Out Channels or Frequencies" on Page 65.
You can use the PAUSE key to temporarily pause the search operation. The scanner
will remain on the frequency that was active when PAUSE was pressed until you
press PAUSE again. You can simply listen to the radio traffic on the paused
frequency, or perform copy operations to save the frequency to a channel before you
resume your search (see "Using Frequency Copy" on Page 60).
