RECORDING AND PLAYBACK
Recording and Playback
Your scanner features a powerful audio recording
system that captures transmissions that occur on
selected Objects to the SD card using the high
quality, industry standard .AU audio file format. For
example, a 4GB SD card with a very large scanning
configuration (e.g., 500 MB) still leaves room for over
100 hours of recording time and thousands of recorded
transmissions! Here are just a few of the things you can
do with the audio recording system:
• Record all transmissions that occur on talkgroups or
channels that are of interest to you for later review.
• Perform attended or unattended searches for
new frequencies, automatically storing audio with
frequency information for all transmissions found
while searching.
• Record all transmissions that occur on ALL
talkgroups or channels, providing an instant recall
function to replay a prior transmission that was
missed or unintelligible.
Audio recording is not enabled by default. To enable
audio recording, make sure that the Enable Record
option in the Settings menu is checked, and set the
Record flag in any Objects that you wish to record. You
may wish to record audio for all of your programmed
Objects, which provides the ability to instantly replay
any transmission that the radio receives in cases where
the traffic may be difficult to copy.
When recording is enabled radio wide and for
selected Objects, you will see the icon flash in the
display when the audio recorder is actively recording
audio information.
