To edit an existing system, use the menu to navigate to the system setting you want to change. This section assumes you are programming a new system. Programming radio systems is completed in two major steps. Don't skip either step! 1. Plan the system. 2. Program the system into your scanner according to the plan you prepared in Step 1.

The number of conventional system channels you can have is limited only by the amount of scanner memory remaining. • You can store up to 20 channel groups per system. • Total channels are limited to about 2500. • Channels that have text tags use more memory than those that do not. If you use a text tag for every channel, total channels are reduced from 2500 (1600 is typical). Programming Radio Systems 51
