Feature Highlights Trunk Tracking - Follow 800 MHz trunked public safety and public service systems just as if conventional two-way communications were used. 300 Channels - Program one frequency into each channel. You must have at least one channel programmed to use the Scan mode. 10 Banks - Each bank contains 30 channels, large enough for even the largest trunked systems or useful for storing similar frequencies to maintain faster scanning cycles. Signal Strength Meter - Your scanner has a signal strength meter, which displays the relative strength of an active transmission, using up to five separate indicators. CTCSS - (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System) When activated, your scanner will only tune to a frequency if the associated CTCSS tone you have programmed is included with the transmission. You can also use this feature to search for a CTCSS tone when monitoring a transmission. 14 Bands - Includes 14 bands, with Aircraft and 800 MHz. 29 MHz-956 MHz - Your scanner covers an extensive frequency range so that you can monitor most of the transmissions in your area. Note: The frequency coverage is not continuous and excludes the cellular band. 10 Priority Channels - You can assign one priority channel in each bank. Assigning a priority channel allows you to keep track of activity on your most important channel(s) while monitoring other channels for transmissions. VFO Control - (Variable Frequency Oscillator) Turn the large Rotary Tuner to select a desired frequency or channel. AutoStore - Automatically stores all active frequencies within the specified bank(s). Weather Alert - Lets your scanner function as a severe weather warning radio. AutoSort - Programmed frequencies are automatically sorted within each bank for faster scanning. Unique Data Skip - Allows your scanner to skip unwanted data transmissions and reduces birdies. Memory Backup - If power is lost or disconnected, the frequencies programmed in your scanner are retained in memory. LCD Back Light - Use M to select one of three different settings for the display backlight. Auto Recording - Automatically record channel activity during scanning onto a tape recorder. Scan/Search Delay - In the Scan or Search Modes, Y causes the scanner to remain on the frequency two seconds after the last transmission to wait for a possible reply. 7
