doesn’t know where they are.
2. You will receive Departments/Sites that have a range equal to your scan range setting plus
the programmed range of the Departments and Sites. For example, if your scan range is set
to 10 miles and a Department/Site range is set to 30 miles, and that Department/Site is less
than 40 miles away from your current location setting, it will be enabled in your Favorites List
according to both range settings.
3. If you use Add Current dB Channels from a list with a 10 mile range (selected location by
zip/postal code) and then set the range to 20 miles, Location Control will not add the other
channels included that extra 10 mile range.
