INTRODUCTION
Your new Realistic* PRO-2023 20-
Channel Direct Entry Programmable
Scanner lets you in on all the action!
This scanner gives you direct access to
over 22,000 exciting frequencies that
include the police department, fire
department, ambulance, amateur
radio, and transportation services. You
can select up to 20 channels for your
scanner to scan and you can change
your selection at any time.
The secret to your scanner's ability to
scan so many frequencies is its cus¬
tom-designed microprocessor — a tiny,
built-in computer. Your scanner's
microprocessor also gives your
scanner these special features:
Liquid Crystal Display-shows the
channel and the frequency you have
selected plus several other indicators.
Two-Second Scan Delay-helps to
prevent the loss of replies on a channel
while you are scanning.
Memory Backup-keeps the channel
frequencies stored in your scanner's
memory for up to three days if a power
failure occurs.
Lock-Out Function-lets your scanner
skip over specified channels.
Priority Channel—helps keep you from
missing important calls on Channel 1.
Weather Band Key-lets your scanner
scan the preprogrammed weather fre¬
quencies to keep you informed of the
most current weather conditions.
Your scanner covers all of these bands:
• 29-29.7 MHz (ham radio 10 m)
• 29.7-50 MHz (VHF Lo)
• 50-54 MHz (ham radio 6 m)
• 108-136 MHz (aircraft)
• 136-144 MHz (government)
• 144-148 MHz (ham radio 2 m)
• 148-174 MHz (VHF Hi)
• 406-450 MHz (ham radio and gov¬
ernment)
• 450-470 MHz (UHF Lo)
• 470-512 MHz (UHF Hi)
