Preprogrammed System Tips All systems preprogrammed into the scanner are assigned to quick key 9. To turn the preprogrammed systems on or off, simply press 9 while scanning. Notes: • The systems preprogrammed into the scanner are located primarily in major metropolitan areas. You might not be able to receive one or more of these preprogrammed systems. • You might hear transmissions on frequencies assigned to very distant stations. This will happen if a local system also uses the same frequency. You can scan preprogrammed systems more efficiently by preventing the BC246T from scanning systems that are not in your area. There are three ways to do this: • Lock out the faraway systems (see "Locking/Unlocking Systems" on Page 42). • Reassign your local systems to another quick key (see "Editing the System Quick Key" on Page 62). • Delete the faraway systems (see "Deleting Systems" on Page 70).
