FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
The scanner is not working at all. What’s wrong?
The AC or DC adapter or DC cable might not be connected. Be sure the adapter/cable’s barrel plug is
fully inserted into the PWR DC 13.8V jack. The center tip of the adapter/cable’s barrel plug must be
set to positive.
The scanner does not receive any stations or reception is poor. What’s wrong?
The scanner might need to reset or initialize. Insert a pointed object into the reset hole on the back
of the scanner, or initialize the scanner (see “Initializing the Scanner”).
The scanner is on but does not scan. What’s wrong?
The squelch might not be adjusted correctly. Turn SQ clockwise. There might only be one channel or
no channels stored in the scanner. Store frequencies into more than one channel.
While scanning, the scanner locks on frequencies that have an unclear transmission. What’s wrong?
Some frequencies programmed into the scanner might be the same as “birdie” frequencies. Avoid
programming “Birdie Frequencies” or only listen to them manually.
