(200-0149) 
 
Introduction 
 
Your new RadioShack PRO-2046 Programmable 100-Channel Mobile Scanner lets 
you in on all the action!  This scanner gives you direct access to over 
30,000 exciting frequencies, including those used by police and fire 
departments, ambulance and transportation services, aircraft 
communications, government agencies, and amateur radio services.  You can 
select up to 100 channels to scan and you can change your selections at 
any time. 
 
Your scanner is preprogrammed with service search banks for convenience. 
By pressing a single button, you can quickly search those frequencies most 
widely used by public service and other agencies without tedious and 
complicated programming.  The scanner also lets you group special or 
interesting frequencies into their own set of channels. 
 
Compact and versatile, the scanner mounts in your home or vehicle.  You 
can also connect an external speaker to your scanner, or an AC adapter and 
base station antenna (not supplied) to set the scanner up as a base 
station in your home. 
 
Your scanner has these features: 
 
                HyperScan - lets you scan 50 channels or more per second. 
 
              Hypersearch - lets you set the scanner to search at up to 
                            300 steps per second in frequency bands with 
                            5 kHz steps, to help you quickly find 
                            interesting broadcasts. 
 
Four Service Search Banks - lets you Search preset frequencies in separate 
                            police/fire/emergency, Department of  
                            Transportation, highway services, and public 
                            service banks, to make it easy to quickly  
                            identify calls.  You can select and search one 
                            or more banks at a time. 
 
           Data Detection - while scanning channels or searching, you can 
                            set the scanner to detect non modulated 
                            carriers or data signals, such as preamble 
                            signals for pagers, to keep the scanner from 
                            stopping on these frequencies. 
 
         Weather Band Key - scans seven preprogrammed weather frequencies 
                            to keep you informed about current weather 
                            conditions. 
 
Ten Channel Storage Banks - You can store 10 channels in each of 10 banks 
                            to group channels so calls are easier to 
                            identify. 
 
     Ten Monitor Memories - you can store 10 frequencies located during a 
                            frequency search, so you can decide if you 
                            want to move them to permanent channel storage 
 
    Ten Priority Channels - lets you set the scanner to check up to 10 
                            channels every 2 seconds so you do not miss
