Radio Shack Pro-2032 - Turning Channel-Storage Banks On;Off; Priority Channel Function; Manually Selecting a Channel

TURNING
CHANNEL-STORAGE
BANKS ON AND OFF
You can turn each channel-storage
bank on and off. When you turn off a
bank, the scanner does not scan any
of the 20 channels in the bank.
While scanning, press the number
key corresponding to the bank you
want to turn on or off. If the memory
bank indicator is on, the bank is
turned on and the scanner scans all
channels within that bank that are not
locked out. If the indicator is off, the
scanner does not scan any of the
channels within that bank.
You can manually select any channel
in a bank, even if the bank is turned
off. You cannot turn off all banks.
One bank is always active.
PRIORITY
You can scan through the pro¬
grammed channels and still not miss
an important or interesting call on a
specific channel. To program a stored
channel as the priority channel, press
PROGRAM, the desired channel num¬
ber, and then PRIORITY. You can only
select one channel as the priority
channel.
To turn on the priority feature, press
PRIORITY during scanning. PRIOR¬
ITY appears on the display. The
scanner now checks the priority chan¬
nel every two seconds, and stays on
the channel if there is activity. P ap¬
pears to the left of the display when¬
ever the scanner is set to the priority
channel.
To turn off the priority feature, press
PRIORITY until PRIORITY disap¬
pears from the display.
MANUALLY SELECTING A
CHANNEL
You can continuously monitor a spe¬
cific channel without scanning. This is
useful if you hear an emergency
broadcast on a channel and do not
want to miss any details — even
though there might be periods of si¬
lence — or if you want to monitor only
a locked-out channel.
To select a channel, just press MAN¬
UAL. Enter the channel number, and
press manual again. Or, if the scan¬
ner is scanning and stops at the de¬
sired channel, just press MANUAL
one time. Pressing MANUAL addi¬
tional times makes the scanner step
through the channels.
