Direct Channel Access
This feature allows you to instantly access a specific channel you want to monitor.
Example: To select Channel 4. Press
4
. Then
press
MANUAL
. When you press
4
, the display
changes to 4, but the scanner still monitors the
previous channel displayed. You must press
MANUAL
key to successfully complete the direct
access to Channel 4.
Weather Channel Scan
The BC244CLT allows you to search for your local NOAA weather channel.
Press
WX
to find the active weather channel
in your area from 7 pre-programmed NOAA
channels. It is possible that your area is covered
by more than 1 weather station.
When you press
WX
, the BC244CLT immediately finds an active broadcast. If the
broadcast sounds weak and distant, press W again to look for a closer station.
To exit Weather mode, press
SCAN
,
MANUAL
, or
ON/OFF
key.
Do not program a weather frequency into 1 of the 30 channels. Because weather
channels transmit continuously, the scanner remains on that channel, disrupting
the scanning cycle. The Weather Scan feature is provided specifically to avoid this
occurrence.
In some parts of the country, you may not be able to monitor weather broadcasts,
such as in low-lying areas. Normally a higher location improves the reception.
All weather channels transmit continuous broadcasts. Once the Weather Scan stops
on a transmission, it remains on that channel. Weather Scan does not resume
automatically. You must press
WX
again to resume weather scanning.
