FEATURES
Your Radio Shack PRO-2040 100-
Channel Programmable Home Scan-
ner lets you in on all the action! This
scanner gives you direct access to
over 30,000 exciting frequencies that
include police and fire departments,
ambulance and transportation ser-
vices, and amateur radio. You can
select up to 100 channels to scan,
and you can change your selections
at any time.
The secret to your scanner's ability to
scan so many frequencies is its cus-
tom-designed microprocessor — a ti-
ny, built-in computer.
Your scanner also has these fea-
tures:
Hyperscan — scans 50 channels
per second.
Hypersearch — searches through
frequencies at 300 steps per second
in bands that have 5 kHz steps to
help you find interesting broadcasts.
Ten 10-Channel Storage Banks —
let you store 10 channels in each of
10 banks to group frequencies so
you can easily identify calls.
Priority Channel — checks a speci-
fied channel every 2 seconds so you
do not miss important calls.

Data Detection — you can set it to
detect data signals (nonmodulated
signals such as preamble signals for
pagers) during a limit or a direct
search so it can automatically contin-
ue searching.
Monitor Memories — let you store
up to 10 frequencies you locate dur-
ing a frequency search which you
can then transfer into channels.
Search Function — searches for
new and unlisted frequencies using a
designated frequency range (limit
search) or starting from a specified
frequency (direct search).
Selectable Scan/Search Speeds
— let you select normal or hyper
scan speeds, and normal, high, or
hyper search speeds.
Manual or Scan Channel Select —
lets you manually specify a single
channel or set the scanner to auto-
matically scan all the stored chan-
nels.
Search Skip — lets you select up to
50 frequencies for the scanner to
skip during a limit or direct search, so
you can avoid unwanted frequen-
cies.
