Turning Channel-Storage Banks On and Off
To turn a channel-storage bank on or off, press the bank’s number key (
1–0,
using
0
for bank 10) during scanning. The channel-storage banks are on when
they have a bar underneath them and off when no bar appears underneath
them.

Notes:
• The scanner does not scan any of the channels within the banks you have
turned off.
• You cannot turn off all banks; there must be at least one active bank.
• You can manually select any channel in a bank, even if the bank is turned
off.
• When you turn on a bank during scanning, the scanner moves to the
selected bank and scans it.
• If no transmission is found, the scanner continues to scan through all
selected banks.
