Why after setting up my frequency my scanner is not pick any frequency on any chanel?like

• First you have to get some frequencies. If you go here http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/ and enter your state, city, or zip code and get some local frequencies.

• Now to program the frequencies.

1. Press the "HOLD" button.
2. Now pick a Chanel you want to store a frequency in.
3. Now press "Func" and "Pgm" buttons and the channel appears.
4. Now enter the frequency and don't forget to include the decimal point in this process.
5. Now press "E" to enter the information.
6. Repeat the steps until your scanner is programmed how you want it to be.

• Here is a copy of the manual as well so you can become more familiar with all the features. http://www.mediafire.com/?4ibpqp4bb8m3sqk When you get to the link click on "Click here to start download from MediaFire.." and the PDF will download onto your computer.

• If you have any comments please feel free to leave them here.
• Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

68 is the highest analogue channel there is in the UK. Digital freeview is around the mid frequencies usually, 28 to 40 ish.

Make sure that the slide switch marked MODE is in the far right (Scanner) position before you start programming. If you need the manual for your scanner, you can download and print it, at no cost, here:

Do you have frequencies programmed into the other channels? Use the MANUAL key to advance through the channels. If each shows a frequency of 000.0000, you need to program the scanner. It will automatically show LOCKOUT for each unprogrammed (000.0000) channel.

There is no clock function on the BC92XLT. To program a frequency, power the scanner ON, then press HOLD to stop scanning. Next, enter the channel number that you wish to program (01, 02, etc.). Push FUNC, then PGM, then enter the frequency you wish to program, including the decimal point (example, 156.075). Press the E key to complete the entry.

try to scan frequency range bet 140 - 160 mhz in VHF range and 300 - 400 in UHF range for police frequencies..... ;-)

assuming you can scan the air band from 108 - 135 what you now need to do is select your range of frequencies from the numeric memory and put them into a "prog", then you can scan the frequencies in there only, better still store them in one of the alpha numeric "banks" or "groups" and scan only those groups. the scanner itself will place active chanels into memory slots automatically for you if you want, then you only hear pre-activated chanels, this is limited though and does not give you very much scope!

not all scanners will pick up the same, the hand held can't pick up frequency as far as the other one.

Check the ATT settings ... when att is showing I don't believe the scanner is as "sensitive" as it is when ATT is showing  this is explained in the manual.... if I remember correctly it is toward the back of the manual Good luck
