Close Call Rf Capture - Uniden UH8080NB Owner's Manual

Operation - Special Features
Close Call RF Capture
™
The Close Call RF Capture feature sets the UH8080NB so it detects and then displays
the frequency of a nearby strong radio transmission. Close Call RF capture works great
for finding frequencies at venues such as malls and sporting events.
Close Call RF Capture doesn't tune to a frequency to check for a transmission, instead
it directly detects the presence of a strong, nearby signal and instantly tunes to the
source's frequency. The UH8080NB only tries to find Close Call transmissions from
400-520 MHz.
• Close Call RF 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.
NOTE
• 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.
