Terminology What is Scanning? Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way communications do not transmit continuously. The UBCT9 scans the Frequencies you have programmed into the Scanner’s channels until it finds an active frequency. Scanning stops on an active frequency and remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanning cycle resumes until another transmission is received. What is Searching? The UBCT9 can search each of its

Sharing of the available public service frequencies, or trunking, allows cities, counties, or other agencies to accommodate hundreds of users with relatively few frequencies. Following a conversation on a trunked system using a scanner is difficult, if not impossible. Because when there’s a short break during the conversation you’re monitoring, it’s possible that the talk group will be assigned to a completely different frequency in the trunked system. This type of scanning is difficult an

How Squelch Works Think of “SQUELCH” as a gate. If the gate is too low (squelch too low), everything (all noise as well as signals) gets through. If the gate is set too high (squelch too high), nothing gets through. If the gate is set just right (squelch set properly), just the desired signals get through. Setting the Squelch 467.8500 1. To set the squelch, press HOLD/RESUME to stop scanning. 2. Turn SQL fully counterclockwise until hiss heard. This lowers the “squelch gate,” allowing all si
