NOTE: The number preprogrammed into your scanner for
downloading frequencies is 1-900-225-4822. There is a $0.99
per minute charge for using the SmartScan database.
The frequencies in the SmartScan database are updated, at a
minimum, every 6 to 12 months. To get current frequencies, as
well as special /sporting event frequencies, regularly update
your scanner by using SmartScan.
NOTE: If you are unable to dial a “900” number, check with
your local phone company to find out if you have a “900” block
on your phone line. This will prevent you from dialing to the
server.
