UNDERSTANDING THE

SCANNER’S MEMORY

You can store up to 210 frequencies

into your scanner’s memory. This

scanner has 200 channel memories

and 10 monitor memories.

Channel-Storage Banks

To make it easier to identify and se-

lect the channels you want to listen

to, channels are divided into 10 chan-

nel-storage banks of 20 channels

each. Use each storage bank to

group frequencies, such as the po-

lice department, fire department, am-

bulance services, or aircraft (see

“Guide to the Action Bands” on

Page 31).

For example, the police department

might use four frequencies, one for

each side of town. You could pro-

gram the police frequencies starting

with Channel 1 (the first channel in

Bank 1) and program the fire depart-

ment starting with Channel 21 (the

first channel in Bank 2).

Monitor Memories

The scanner has 10 monitor memo-

ries. You can use these memories to

temporarily store frequencies while

you decide whether or not to store

them into channels. This is handy for

quickly storing an active frequency

when you search through an entire

band. You can manually select these

memories, but you cannot scan

them. See “Searching For and Tem-

porarily Storing Active Frequencies”

on Page 20.
