BIRDIES
Some frequencies may be
difficult
or
impossible
to receive.
lf
the
Scanner
locks
up on one of
these
frequencies
while in the Search
mode
(or
if
you
program-in
one
of them),
you
may
only
hear
noise.
These
"birdies"
are the
products
of
internally
generated
signals
mixing
with
external
signals like TV and FM broadcasts.
Plug-in
antennas are
much
more likely
to
pick
up these
undesirable
signals-that's
another
good
reason
for
getting
an
outdoor,
base-station type
antenna for
home installations.
lf
the
interference is not
severe,
you
may
be
able
to use SOUELCH
to cut out
such
annoying
birdies.
A
few
of
the
most common
birdies
to
watch out for
are
listed below.
