Radio Shack REALISTIC PRO-2042 - Locking out Channels and Frequencies

To turn off sound squelch, press
SOUND SQUELCH again.
Note: If the scanner receives a fre¬
quency that broadcasts both a carrier
and a modulated signal, it stops scan¬
ning and monitors the frequency.
If the modulated signal stops being
broadcast on the frequency, the scan¬
ner stays on the frequency for 5 se¬
conds, then resumes scanning.
If the carrier signal stops being broad¬
cast on the frequency, the scanner re¬
sumes scanning immediately, unless
DELAY is set.
LOCKING OUT
CHANNELS AND
FREQUENCIES
You can scan existing channels or
search frequencies faster by locking
out channels or frequencies that have
a continuous transmission, such as a
weather channel.
To lock out a channel while scanning,
press L/OUT when the scanner stops
on the channel. To lock out a channel
manually, manually select the channel
and press L/OUT until LOCK-OUT ap¬
pears on the display.
To remove the lockout from a channel,
manually select the channel and press
L/OUT until LOCK-OUT disappears
from the display.
Notes:
• You can delete the frequencies
stored in locked-out channels within
a bank. See “Deleting Frequencies
from All Locked-Out Channels
Within a Bank” on Page 29.
• You can still manually select
locked-out channels.
• You cannot lock out all channels.
There must be at least one active
channel in each bank.
To lock out a frequency while search¬
ing, press L/OUT when the scanner
displays the desired frequency. To lock
out a frequency manually, manually
select the frequency and press L/OUT
until LOCK-OUT appears on the dis¬
play.
To lock out a frequency during a limit
or direct search, press L/OUT when the
scanner stops on the frequency. The
scanner locks out the frequency, then
continues searching.
Notes:
• If you press DIRECT, LIMIT, or TUNE,
then press L/OUT, the scanner will
not lock out a channel or frequency.
Choose another function, then try
pressing L/OUT again.
• The scanner does not store locked-
out frequencies during a limit or
direct search.
