AAO2000315Scanning Receiver

20-315 Owner’s Manual Page 1 Owner’s Manual Cat. No. 20-315 PRO-82 200-Channel VHF/Air/UHF Handheld Scanner Please read before using this equipment. FEATURES Your new RadioShack PRO-82 200 Channel VHF/Air/UHF Handheld Scanner lets you scan conventional transmissions, and is preprogrammed with search banks for convenience. By pressing a single button, you can quickly search those frequencies most commonly used by public service and other agencies without tedious and complicated programming. This scanner gives you direct access to over 25,000 exciting frequencies, including those used by police and fire departments, ambulance services, aircraft, and amateur radio services, and you can change your selection at any time. Your scanner also has these special features: One Touch Search Banks — let you search preset frequencies in separate marine, fire/police, aircraft, ham, and weather banks, to make it easy to locate specific types of calls. Display Backlight — makes the scanner easy to read in low-light situations. Duplicate Channel Alert — warns you when the frequency you are storing already exists in memory. Lockout Function — lets you set your scanner to skip over specified channels or frequencies when scanning or searching. Memory Backup — keeps the channel frequencies stored in memory for about an hour in the event of a power loss. Ten Channel-Storage Banks — you can store 20 channels in each bank (200 total channels), letting you group channels so you can more easily identify calls. Tune — lets you tune for new and unlisted frequencies starting from a specified frequency. 20-315 Owner’s Manual Page 2 Weather Alert — the scanner automatically sounds an alert when it receives a weather emergency signal, providing more complete information about weather conditions in your immediate area. Wired Programming — you can connect your scanner to a personal computer and program frequencies into it using an optional cable and software. Note: You can get the cable, software, and additional information about using your personal computer to program your scanner from your local RadioShack store. Special Function — lets you easy scan the fire/police, air, or ham channel banks. Scan Delay — delays scanning for about 2 seconds before moving to another channel, so you can hear more replies that are transmitted on the same channel. Priority Channel — lets you program a channel as the priority channel. As the scanner scans, it checks the priority channel every 2 seconds so you do not miss transmissions on that channel. HyperSearch and HyperScan — let you set the scanner to search at up to 50 steps per second (in frequency bands with 5 kHz steps) and scan at up to 25 channels per second, to help you quickly find interesting broadcasts. Manual Access — you can directly access any stored channel by entering that channel’s number. Key Lock — lets you lock the scanner’s keys to help prevent accidentally changing the scanner’s programming. Liquid-Crystal Display — makes it easy to view and change programming information. Supplied Flexible Antenna with BNC Connector — provides good reception of strong local signals. You can connect an external antenna with a BNC connector to the scanner for improved reception of distant/weaker signals. Key Confirmation Tones — the scanner sounds a confirmation tone when you perform an operation correctly, and an error tone if you make an error. Three Power Options — you can power the scanner from internal (rechargeable or non- rechargeable batteries) or external AC or DC power (using an optional AC or DC adapter). Your PRO-82 scanner can receive these bands: Frequency Range (MHz) Types of Transmissions 29–54 10-Meter Ham Band, VHF Lo, 6-Meter Ham Band 108–136.9875 Aircraft 137–174 Military Land Mobile, 2-Meter Ham Band, VHF Hi 380–512 UHF Aircraft, Federal Government, 70-cm Ham 20-315 Owner’s Manual Page 3 Band, UHF Standard Band, UHF “T” Band Note: See “Specifications” on Page 50 for more information about the scanner’s frequency steps. © 2002 Tandy Corporation.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a scanning receiver, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful interference. 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Note: Mobile use of this scanner is unlawful or requires a permit in some areas. Check the laws in your area. SCANNING LEGALLY 20-315 Owner’s Manual Page 4 Scanning is a fun and interesting hobby. You can hear police and fire departments, ambulance services, government agencies, private companies, amateur radio services, aircraft, and military operations. It is legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner can receive. However, there are some electronic and wire com…
