Lock Out Channels / Frequencies

Sometimes the scanner may stop on a particular channel or frequency because of

noise or other unwanted transmissions. This feature lets you lock out channels and

frequencies you don’t want to scan. The Lock Out feature skips these channels and

frequencies during scanning.

Types of Lock Out

Temporary Lock Out

Pressing

L/O

once temporarily locks out the current frequency or channel. The

scanner displays “T L/O” for that frequency or channel and continues scanning. All “T

L/O” frequencies/channels are restored when the scanner is powered off and later

switched on again.

Permanent Lock Out

Pressing

L/O

twice permanently locks out the current frequency or channel. The

scanner displays “L/O” for that frequency or channel and continues scanning. “L/O”

frequencies/channels can be manually restored; the procedure is provided in this

section.

Lock Out Limits

Any of the 300 user-programmed channels can be locked out; however there is a

limit to the number of frequencies that can be locked out of a preprogrammed bank

or band search. Up to 100 frequencies can be

permanently

locked out and up to

100 frequencies can be

temporarily

locked out.

If you try to permanently or temporarily lock out 101 frequencies the scanner

releases the first locked out frequency when you lock out the 101st frequency.

Locking out a frequency in any service bank or search band locks it out in all other

service banks or search bands.

However it will not affect the frequency if you have saved it in a channel.

You can only lock out all the channels or frequencies in the

Private

EMG

Freenet

(FRN)

PMR

and

Marine banks

If you lock out all the channels or frequencies in one

of these banks pressing that bank key will make the scanner emit an error tone and

the scanner will not scan.
