12 Feature Highlights Feature Highlight s Genera l Close Call TM R F C aptu r e T ech nolo gy - you c an s et the scanner so it detects and provides information about nearby radio transmissi ons. See “Using the Close Cal l Featu re” on Page 86 for more information.
13 Feature Highlights Dr opou t D el ay – Y ou c an set whether the scanner pauses a t the end of a trans mission to wait f or a rep ly . Y ou can set the d elay time for each system you scan, and while searching and using the Close Call feature.
14 Feature Highlights 21 Ban ds – I nclude s 21 band s, wit h Air craft and 800 MHz. Not e : The scanner’ s frequ ency cov erage is n ot cont inuous and doe s not i nclude the cel lular te lephone b and.
15 Feature Highlights Auto Sto r e Fre que n cy Aut oS to re – A utoma tically stores all active frequencie s within a sy st em you select. T a lk Group ID Aut oSt ore – A utom atically stores all new talk group ID’s into a sy stem you select .
16 Feature Highlights Clone M ode – Y o u can clone all prog rammed data, including the con tents of the scan ner ’s mem ory , menu settings, and other parameters from one BC 246T scanner to another BC246T scanne r .
17 Feature Highlights Entering Text T o enter a letter , turn the s croll cont rol u ntil the cha racter y ou w ant app ears, T o ente r a num ber , press a number key . T o enter a decimal point, press . T o move the cursor to the lef t, hold then press /4 or rotate the sc roll control to the lef t .
18 Understanding Scanning Und erst a ndin g Scan ning This sec tion provides you with backgroun d on ho w scannin g wo rks. Y ou don ’t reall y need to kno w al l o f this to use your scanner , but some background knowledg e will help you g et t he mos t from your BC 246T .
19 Understanding Scanning cycle r e sumes until t he scanner receives another transmi ssion. Wh at is S ear chin g ? The BC24 6T can search each of its 21 bands and up to 10 band s together t o find a ctive frequ encies.
20 Understanding Scanning frequency . The s tations m ight even in terfere w ith each other to the p oint whe re it is im possib le to clearly rec eive any o f the stations. A sca nner equ ipped with CTCSS and DCS (like you r scanner) can c ode ea ch received frequency with a specific CTCSS or DCS frequenc y .
21 Understanding Scanning Co nv en ti on al Scan n ing Conventional sc anning is a relativel y s imple concept. Each group of users in a conventional s ystem is assi gned a singl e fr equenc y (for s imple x sys tems) or t wo fre quen cies ( for r epea ter systems).
22 Understanding Scanning Repeater Operation Repeat er sy stems use two f requenci es: one t rans mit s from the rad io to a cent ral repea ter; the ot her transmi t s from the re peate r to othe r ra dios i n the sy stem.
23 Understanding Scanning you usually know wh o it is, a nd more imp ortantly , you can stop o n a channe l a nd l isten to an e ntire c onversat ion. This t ype of s canning is eas y a nd fun.
24 Understanding Scanning trunked radio system . Once you know a tal k group’s ID, you won’t miss any of the action. If you are a new scanner enthusiast, you might want to read the first part of this manual and use your scanner in conventiona l mode before you begin trunk tracking.
25 Understanding Scanning maps are include d in “P reset F leet M aps” on Page 105. Y ou c an also find fleet map resources on the web. Motorola T ype II – t he rad ios o nly sen d the radio ID and radio channel code to the control channel.
26 Understanding Scanning For example , 01 might be used by the police, 02 by ambula nce serv ice, 03 by the f ire departmen t, and so on. Each agen cy is then subdi vided up to 16 t imes to provid e fleet identification, and then 8 more times to identify subfleets.
27 Understanding Scanning H = Home repeater (01 through 20) U = Us er ID (00 0 through 254 ) When th e scan ner rec eives a transmi ssio n on a chan nel set to th e L TR m ode, it fi rst decodes the L TR dat a in clud ed with the transm ission .
