Signal Stalker I Options
• Alert Beep: Set to On if you want to hear an alert when Signal Stalker I
finds a frequency.
• Alert Light: Set to On if you want the backlight to flash when Signal
Stalker I finds a frequency.
• Pager Screen: Set to On if you want to ignore common pager
frequencies.
• Only Mode: Set to On to turn off normal scanning while Signal Stalker I
runs. Set to Off to continue normal scanning while Signal Stalker I runs
in the background.
• Band Switch: Set the frequency band where you want the scanner to
look for transmissions.
0 25-54 : VHF Low Band
1 108-137: AIR Band
2 137-225: VHF High Band 1
3 225-320: VHF High Band 2
4 320-512: UHF Band
5 764-956: 800MHz Band
• Voice Interrupt: While the Signal Stalker I is on and the scanner is
receiving an audio signal (voice) in normal scanning, the scanner
checks the Signal Stalker I every 2 seconds causing the audio signal to
break at that moment.
Set Voice Interrupt to On if you want to keep the Signal Stalker I active
despite interruptions while the scanner is receiving an audio signal.
Set to Off if you do not want to hear interruptions. The scanner resumes
checking signals when the audio signal ends.
• Logging: Set this function to On to scan log channels along with
normal channels. Set this function to Off if you do not want to scan log
channels.
Log Channels
• When the scanner finds a strong signal, it automatically saves the
signal to one of 10 log channels. If the scanner finds a new frequency
after the 10 log channels are fully stored with frequencies, the oldest
memory is deleted and the new frequency is stored in that channel.
You can scan the log channels along with the normal 1000 channels.
• The 10 log channels are located after Bank 19 Channel 49 and you can
manually access them by selecting channels as Bank 20 Channel 00, Bank
20 Channel 01, ... Bank 20 Channel 09. The channel numbers appear as
SS-0, SS-1, ... SS-9.
• You cannot program frequencies in the log channels.
• You can lock out the log channels like normal channels.
• The scanner stores signals found by the Signal Stalker I even if the
logging option is set to off.
• The frequencies in the log channels are deleted when the scanner is
turned off.
Signal Stalker I Band Meter
The band meter allows you to see which band Signal Stalker I is searching
for. When a strong and consistent signal is detected, this meter will rise up to
Max. The scanner tunes to the signal and shows the band where the signal is
detected.
However, even if this meter rises to Max, the scanner might not be able to
catch the signal if it is out of range, locked-out, or screened as a common
pager frequency.
To improve performance, disable the band by pressing the band number
on the keypad. Alternatively, disable the band within the Band Switch in the
Signal Stalker I options menu.
Note: This feature is different from SIGNAL STRENGTH METER using
RSSI.
