Using The Attenuator - GRE PSR-295 Owner's Manual

To change the receive mode, repeatedly press MODE.
The receive mode changes as follows:
AM — configures the channel for AM mode.
FM — configures the channel for FM mode.
CT — configures the channel for CTCSS mode.
DC — configures the channel for DCS mode.
Note: You can change the receive mode during search-
ing and tuning. You changes the receive mode while
search or tune, the display shows small caps (ex. am). To
return to the receive mode for default setting, press FUNC
then press MODE.

Using the Attenuator

To reduce interference or noise caused by strong sig-
nals, you can reduce the scanner's sensitivity to these
signals.
There are two attenuator modes in your scanner. One is
normal attenuator mode in which you set the attenuator
in each channel or each band/group in the search and
tune mode. The other is global mode in which you set
the attenuator only once. This setting is applied all the
time in every mode.
Press ATT to turn on or off the attenuator while the chan-
nel number is indicated or while the scanner is searching
through bands/groups. When the attenuator is on, A ap-
pears at the eleventh digit in the top line.
When you turn it off, A changes to "•". You cannot set the
attenuator while the scanner is scanning.
Press FUNC and then ATT to set the attenuator to its
global mode. Global ATT. appears for 2 seconds at the
bottom line and a or — appears. a means the attenuator
is on and — means it is off. Press ATT to turn the attenu-
ator on or off. ATT:G—On or ATT:G—Off appears on the
bottom line while scanning.
Press FUNC and then ATT again to turn off the global
attenuation mode. Normal ATT. appears on the bottom
line for about 2 seconds.
Note: If you turn on the attenuator, the scanner might not
receive weak signals.
