Feature Highlights
◆
Twin Turbo Scan & Search —This lightning-fast
technology enables the SportCat to scan nearly 100
channels per second. Search speed is selectable
between 100 and 300 steps per second. (300 steps
per second only in bands with 5 kHz steps.) Because
the frequency coverage is so large (see previous
section for band listing), very fast scanning and
searching are essential.
◆
200 Channels You can program each of these
memory channels to store one frequency.
◆
12 Bands, 10 Banks Includes 12 Bands, with
Aircraft and 800 MHz. 10 Banks of 20 channels each
are useful for storing similar frequencies in order to
maintain faster scanning cycles.
◆
29 MHz - 956 MHz Indicates the range of
frequencies that can be searched within the bands of
your scanner.
(
Note: The frequency coverage is not totally
continuous from 29.0 MHz to 956 MHz.)
◆
10 Priority Channels You can assign
one Priority
Channel in each Bank. Assigning priority channels
allows you to keep track of activity on your most
important channel(s) while monitoring other channels
for transmissions. (Priority Channels are initially set in
the first channel in each Bank.)
◆
Weather Channels Lets your scanner function as a
weather information radio.
◆
Memory Backup The stored channels are retained
in memory permanently.
◆
Programmable Alpha Characters You can program
up to 200 channels with alphabetical characters for
easy reference.
◆
Band Search You can search within the
preprogrammed bands.
◆
Limit Search You can search within a specific range
of frequencies.
◆
VFO Search You can search by using the VFO
control.
◆
Alert Beep If the SportCat finds a transmission on a
channel you have preset, it beeps twice.
◆
Auto Light The SportCat can turn on its backlight
automatically when it finds a transmission if this
function is activated.
