About the Keypad You can also search the SEARCH banks, which are preprogrammed frequencies in the scanner's memory (see “Searching a Preprogrammed Frequency Range” on Page 32 for the frequency list). You can even change the frequency range on one of the SEARCH banks (SR5) to limit the search. When you find a frequency, you can store it into a programmable memory location called a channel, which is grouped with other channels in a channel-storage bank. You can then scan the channel-storage banks

Understanding Your Scanner's Modes To make it easier to identify and select the channels you want to listen to, your scanner divides the channels into 10 banks (0 to 9)of 100 (00 to 99) channels each, a total of 1,000 channels. You can use each channel-storage bank to group frequencies, such as those used by Motorola trunking, EDACS trunking, Marine, CB, Police, Fire, Aircraft and Ham (see “Typical Band Usage (in MHz)” on Page 71). For example, a police department might use four frequencies, one
