The Basics the basics A frequency is the tuning location of a station. A channel is a programmable memory location for storing frequencies that you can scan for activity. Channels are grouped into 10 channel- storage banks, each of which contains 100-channels. Service banks are preset channel-storage banks of frequencies used by HAM operators, marine, aircraft, and police (fi re/emergency) services. For example, many amateur radio frequencies are located in the HAM service bank. Your scann
