• If you have not stored frequencies into any channels
(see “Storing Active Frequencies” on Page 27), the
scanner does not scan.
STORING ACTIVE FREQUENCIES
You can manually store frequencies you already know into
the scanner’s channels. You can also store frequencies
you found using band search directly into channels. You
can also store a frequency into a monitor memory then
store it into a channel.
Good references for active frequencies are the RadioShack
Police Call Radio Guide Including Fire and Emergency
Services, Aeronautical Frequency Directory, and Maritime
Frequency Directory. We update these directories every
year, so be sure to get a current copy.
If you do not have a reference to frequencies in your area,
follow the steps in “Band Search” on Page 29 or “Direct
Search” on Page 31 to search for transmissions. See also
“Guide to the Action Bands” on Page 41.
Manually Storing Frequencies
If you know a frequency you want to store, you can store
it manually.
