19 Sear ching Y ou can search for transmissions using the prepr ogrammed search bank, which is divided into eight search bands. Seek Search When Seek Search is active, the scanner stops on active fr equencies for ve seconds and then resumes sear ching automatically .
20 SR3 to SR5 banks contain several groups. T o turn off a gr oup, press the gr oup number; the group number disappears. T o turn the group back on, pr ess the group number again. 2. Adjust the Squelch. After the set delay , the scanner starts searching.
21 Zeromatic While searching, the scanner stops if a transmission triggers the squelch setting. A narrow-band FM transmission can have a deviation of +/- 5 KHz, and the actual total bandwidth, including the tails of the sidebands, can be even greater .
22 6. Press SRCH to start searching. 7. Adjust the Squelch. After the set delay , the scanner starts searching. When the scanner nds an active fr equency , it stops searching. Signal Stalker II Signal Stalker II provides a powerful tool to rapidly detect, monitor and save frequencies of nearby or high-power transmissions.
23 Special Signal Stalker Special Signal Stalker II divides the frequency range by 1 MHz segments. If you lock out 5 frequencies within 1 MHz segment, the scanner will skip that segment in subsequent sweeps. T o use Special Signal Stalker II: 1. Press FUNC .
24 T o review and unlock fr equencies: 1. Press SRCH to enter sear ch mode. 2. Press FUNC then L/OUT . The rst locked-out fr equency and lockout list appear . If the search bank has no locked-out frequencies, “No Lockout” appears. 3. Press or to r eview the list.
25 Scanning Scanning sequentially checks all saved channels for activity . Y ou must save frequencies into channels to scan. The scanner does not scan empty channels or unsaved frequencies. Y ou can increase the scanning speed by locking out channels with continuous transmissions, such as a weather channel or turning off entire banks.
26 T o review all locked out channels: 1. Press MAN . 2. Repeatedly pressing FUNC and then L/OUT to view each locked- out channel. 3. T o unlock a channel, press L/OUT . “LO” changes to “lo.” 4. When you nish reviewing locked-out channels, pr ess MAN .
27 T o modify the Priority channel: 1. Press PROG . 2. Press PRI . 3. Use the number keys to enter the frequency . 4. Press ENT . If the frequency is incorr ect, “Invalid Freq” appears briey .
28 SAME Standb y Mode SAME alerts include FIPS codes to identify areas, established by the US Census bureau. Y ou can set your scanner to alert for all areas or limit weather alerts to up to 10 specic areas by FIPS code. The National Weather Service maintains a curr ent list of FIPS codes at www .
29 T o review stor ed FIPS codes: 1. Press WX then a number key . 2. Press L/OUT to change the lockout status. For information about adding text tags to a FIPS code, see “T ext T ags” on Page 43. T o enter SAME standby: 1. Press FUNC , and then WX .
30 Skyw arn Skywarn is an organized gr oup of trained weather observers. Using Skywarn, you can hear trained observers in your area call in ofcial reports to a contr ol station that relays those r eports to NOAA and other emergency agencies. Before using this featur e, save local Skywarn frequencies for your area into Channel 999.
31 tune direction, pr ess or . When the scanner nds an active frequency , it stops. 4. Press PSE to monitor the fr equency . The transmission signal level is indicated by the 5 dots. T o set a default tuning frequency: 1 . Press MAN . 2. (Optional) Use the number keys to enter the frequency number .
32 3. Repeatedly press MODE to select a trunking mode (Motor ola, EDACS, or L TR). 4. Press PROG . T r unking Modes In Closed mode, the scanner stops only on transmissions with saved and unlocked T alk Group IDs. This lets you focus a scan on the frequencies you have identied, ignoring other transmissions.
33 Fleet Maps For Motorola T ype I and hybrid systems, you must program a eet map before saving T alk Group IDs. T o program a eet map: 1. Press PROG then TRUNK . 2. Press FUNC , then pr ess or to select the bank. 3. If necessary , repeatedly press MODE to select “Motor ola.

36 L TR T runking Setup L TR systems, assign each frequency a Home Repeater (HR) number , and are fr equently programmed with unique ID codes for each radio. L TR T alk Group IDs are or ganized in a specic order , and to scan, you must program the fr equencies in HR order .
37 T o search for T alk Group IDs: 1. Set the bank to Open mode. 2. Press SCAN . The scanner scans thr ough all unlocked channels in the active banks. 3. When the scanner stops on a transmission, press TRUNK . The scanner displays the ID location: Sub-bank.
38 6 . Use the number and decimal point keys to enter the T alk Group ID: For ED T alk Group IDs, you can enter either a decimal or AFS code. The default setting is decimal ID entry . T o use the AFS code, press FUNC then 2 , “AFS Format” appears for about 2 seconds.
39 5. T o clear the T alk Group IDs, Press 1 . T o cancel the deletion, press any key except 1 . Sa ving T runking Channels T runking channels are dened using the same procedur e for non- trunking channels.
40 For Motorola channels, your scanner displays the T alk Group ID memory location, received fr equency , voice channel (VC), and the Motorola ID number . Y our scanner automatically mutes the audio while it decodes control channel data. However , we recommend you turn SQ clockwise and leave it set to a point just after the hiss stops.
41 Locking Out T alk Group IDs Y ou can only lock out T alk Group IDs when the scanner is in the Closed mode. T o lock out T alk Group IDs: 1. Press PROG then TRUNK . 2. Press FUNC , or to move to the desir ed bank. 3. Press or to select the ID.
