Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way communications do not transmit continuously.

SCANNING BASICS
This section provides you with background on how scanning works. You don’t really
need to know all of this to use your scanner, but some background knowledge will
help you get the most from your BCD160DN.
WHAT IS SCANNING?
Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way communications do not
transmit continuously. Your BCD160DN scans programmed channels until it
nds
an active frequency, then stops on that frequency and remains on that channel as
long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanning cycle
resumes until the scanner receives another transmission.
