You can increase the effective scanning or search speed by 
locking out individual channels or frequencies that have a 
continuous transmission, such as a weather channel (see 
“National Weather Frequencies” on Page 24) or a birdie 
frequency (see “Birdie Frequencies” on Page 24).
To lock out a channel while scanning or a frequency during 
one-touch search or while tuning, press 
L/O/L/O RVW
 when 
the scanner stops on the channel or frequency. If you 
locked out a frequency, the scanner locks it out then 
continues searching.
To manually lock out a channel, select the channel then 
hold down 
L/O/L/O RVW
 until

Locking Out Channels or 
Frequencies
• Your scanner automatically 
locks out empty channels.
• You can still manually select 
locked-out channels.
• You can lock out as many as 50 
frequencies during a search. If 
you try to lock out more, 
<Beý#

Removing Lockouts From All 
Frequencies in a One Touch 
Search Bank
• These steps do not clear any 
lockouts in the marine and 
weather bank.
• If you locked out frequencies 
which are within the range of 
any of the one touch search 
banks during tune, the scanner 
also removes those locked-out 
frequencies when you use these 
steps. For example, if you 
locked out 29.000 MHz while 
tuning, the scanner removes it, 
since 29.000 MHz is one of the 
frequencies in the ham radio 
service bank.
