Programming Tips
• Since weather transmissions are continuous, do not program a weather frequency into
any of the scanner's channels. To listen to a weather transmission, press WX to select
the weather information band instead.
• Group similar frequencies into adjacent channels. For example, program police fre-
quencies in channels 1 through 50 and fire/emergency into channels 51 through 100,
and so on.
• Put the frequency you listen to the most or the most important frequency into a priority
channel.
• To quickly program a series of channels, start with the lowest number channel. For
example, when you are programming five new frequencies into Channels 4 through 8,
start with Channel 4. After you finish programming a channel, press MANUAL or
HOLD
to go to the next higher channel.
• Record channels and frequencies in some convenient place in case the scanner's
memory is lost.

channel there is a brief pause before the scanning cycle resumes. Delay must be set for
each programmed channel, and it can be set when your scanner pauses during a scan or
when manual mode is selected.
