Using the Digital AGC Function

You may find that the audio level varies greatly among different users on digital systems
that you monitor. Many analog conventional and trunked radio systems include
components with automatic gain control to help normalize the audio levels of analog
transmissions in the system. Digital radio systems typically do not include any automatic
gain control functionality and tend to reproduce a user's voice audio signal more faithfully
with regard to audio levels. This can result in a low level audio signal if a user on the
system is not speaking close enough to their radio microphone.
Your PRO-96 features Digital AGC, which can compensate for these low audio levels
when they occur. By default, Digital AGC is turned on. If desired, you can toggle the
Digital AGC function on or off by pressing FUNC, then MAN at any time. The display will
briefly show DSP AGC Off or DSP AGC On accordingly.
Notes
Digital AGC has no effect on analog transmissions.
You may notice more background noise with Digital AGC on.

Cloning the Programmed Data

You can transfer the contents of the current scanner working memory to and from
another PRO-96 scanner using an optional connecting cable with 1/8-inch (3.5 mm)
phone plugs on both ends (use Radio Shack part number 42-2420 available at your local
RadioShack store), or to a computer application designed to work with this scanner using
a PC interface cable (use Radio Shack part number 20-289, available at your local
RadioShack store).
