NOTES
• The priority feature
does not operate
while the scanner
receives a trunking
voice channel or
during trunking delay
time. Traffic on the
priority channel may
be missed if it occurs
while the scanner is
monitoring a trunking
voice call.
• If you program a
weather channel as
the priority channel,
then activate priority
mode, the scanner
stops on the weather
channel only when
the scanner detects
the 1050 Hz weather
alert tone.

SCAN
When automatically storing
trunked IDs in the ID list by
pressing during a trunked
TRUNK
transmission, the scanner will
automatically store the active ID in
the next available open ID storage
location in the ID list. We suggest
leaving ID sub-bank 0 empty when
first setting up an ID list. This
provides a location for new auto-
store IDs to be placed and
organized.
Programming the Priority
Channel
In addition to the 500
programmable memory channels,
the scanner has one priority
channel.
With the priority feature, you can
scan through programmed
channels and still not miss an
important or interesting
transmission on the priority
channel. When priority is turned
on, the scanner checks the priority
channel every 2 seconds, and
stays on the channel if there is
activity until the activity stops.
