Locking Out Channels The lock-out feature lets you further customize the channels that you want to scan at a particular time. For example, if a stored frequency broadcasts almost all the time, the scanner will stop on it and stay. You can lock out that channel when you are more interested in the other channels for the current scanning session. When you lock out a channel, it is temporarily excluded from scanning, but it remains programmed so that you can easily unlock it for scanning later. You can select a locked out channel using the Manual Mode. See page 12. Use these keys: Locking Out a Channel 1. Presss. 2. Scanner stops on an undesired channel. 3. PressLto lock out the channel.
