Realistic PRO-2023 - MANUALLY SELECTING A CHANNEL; LISTENING TO THE WEATHER BAND

MANUALLY SELECTING A
CHANNEL
You can continuously monitor a single
channel without scanning.
This is useful if you hear an emergency
broadcast on a channel and do not
want to miss any of the details — even
though there might be periods of sil¬
ence - or if you want to monitor a
channel that you have locked out.
To select a channel to monitor, press
[MANUAL] enter the channel number,
and then press (MANUAL) again. Or, if
your scanner is scanning and has
stopped at the desired channel, simply
press [MANUAL] one time. Pressing
(MANUAL) additional times causes
your scanner to step through the chan¬
nels one at a time.
LISTENING TO THE WEATHER
BAND
The FCC (Federal Communications
Commision) has allocated several
channels for use by the National Ocea¬
nic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA). We have preprogrammed
your scanner with all of the frequencies
available to NOAA. To hear your local
forcast and regional weather informa¬
tion, simply press (WX). Your scanner
begins scanning through the weather
band, and WX SEARCH appears on
the display.
Your scanner should stop within a few
seconds, and you hear the local
weather broadcast. If the broadcast is
weak, you can press [WX) again to
scan through the rest of the weather
band.
