What to do if my Radio Shack Pro-95 Scanner is on but will not scan?
If your Radio Shack Scanner is on but not scanning, the SQUELCH might not be correctly adjusted. Try turning the SQUELCH clockwise. Alternatively, you may have only one or no channels stored. In that case, store frequencies into more than one channel.
Why does my Radio Shack Pro-95 have poor or no reception?
Poor or no reception on your Radio Shack Scanner can occur if an antenna is not connected properly. Be sure an antenna is correctly connected to the scanner. Also, the programmed frequencies might be the same as 'birdie' frequencies. Avoid programming frequencies listed under 'Birdie Frequencies' or only listen to them manually.
How to fix a totally inoperative Radio Shack Pro-95 Scanner?
If your Radio Shack Scanner is totally inoperative, first ensure that the AC or DC adapter is properly connected by fully inserting the adapter's barrel plug into the PWR DC 9V jack. If it still does not work, the batteries may have failed. Recharge the rechargeable batteries or replace the standard batteries.
What to do if Radio Shack Scanner locks on frequencies with unclear transmission during scanning?
If your Radio Shack Scanner locks on frequencies that have an unclear transmission during scanning, it might be because the programmed frequencies are the same as 'birdie' frequencies. Avoid programming frequencies listed under 'Birdie Frequencies', or only listen to them manually.
What to do if the keypad does not work on Radio Shack Pro-95?
If the keypad on your Radio Shack Scanner isn't working, check if the keylock is turned on and turn it off. If that doesn't solve the issue, the scanner might need to be reset or initialized. Turn the scanner off then on again, or reset/ initialize the scanner.
