Locking a Channel While Scanning  
Channel Lockout  
If the scanner keeps stopping on a particular  
channel due to noise or too frequent transmissions,  
you may want to keep that channel from scanning.  
You can lockout any channel so it is not reviewed  
during normal scanning. You can restore the chan-  
nel to scanning whenever you wish.  
1. Wait until the  
scanner stops at  
the channel.
