TROUBLESHOOTING
If your scanner is not working as it should, these suggestions might help you elimi-
nate the problem. If the scanner still does not operate properly, take it to your local
RadioShack store for assistance.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY
Scanner is on but will not
scan. SQUELCH is not correctly
adjusted. Adjust SQUELCH clock-
wise.
Only one channel or no
channels are stored. Store frequencies into more
than one channel.
Scanner is totally inopera-
tive. No power. Make sure the scanner is
plugged into a working AC
or DC outlet.
The AC or DC adapter is not
connected. Be sure the adapter’s barrel
plug is fully inserted into the
DC 13.8V jack.
The scanner must be reset
or initialized. Reset or initialize the scan-
ner (see “Resetting/Initializ-
ing the Scanner” on
Page 52).
Poor or no reception An antenna is not con-
nected or connected incor-
rectly. Make sure an antenna is
connected to the scanner.
Error appears. Programming error. Reprogram the frequency
correctly, including the deci-
mal point.
In the scan mode, the scan-
ner locks on frequencies
that have an unclear trans-
mission. Programmed frequencies
are the same as “birdie”
frequencies. Avoid programming fre-
quencies listed under
“Birdie Frequencies” on
Page 44 or only listen to
them manually.
Scanner will not track a
trunked system. The transmission might not
use a system that can be
tracked by your scanner. Scan another transmission.
