How do you find frequencies and store them - Uniden BC92XLT Handheld Scanner

Configuring Your Scanner

Preprogrammed Frequencies

Your scanner includes 153 preprogrammed
frequencies, which you can load into Channels
1 to 153. For a list of these frequencies, see
"Preprogrammed Frequency List" on page 23.
To load the pregprogrammed frequencies:
1. Turn off the scanner and then turn it on again.
2. While WELCOME message appears, press PGM.
3. Load -Fr- appears, then YES--Ent and No --
CLEAr appear alternately.
4. Press ENT to load frequencies or CLEAR to
cancel.

Programming Channels

If you do not have a list of frequencies in your area,
refer to www.radioreference.com.
1. Press PGM. PGM appears.
2. Enter the channel number (1-200) where you
want to store a frequency, then press PGM again.
3. Use the number keys and • to enter the frequency
(including the decimal point), then press ENT.
4. To program the next channel in sequence, press
PGM and repeat Step 3. To program a specific
channel repeat Steps 2 and 3..
• Your scanner automatically rounds down to
the closest valid frequency. For example, if
you enter 151.473, your scanner rounds it to
151.470.
• If Error appears and the scanner beeps three
times when you press ENT, start again from
Step 2.
• If the frequency is already stored in another
channel, the scanner beeps three times and
displays -dUPL- (duplicate) and the lowest
channel number where the frequency is already
stored. Press TUNE/CLEAR to cancel. Press
ENT if you still want to store the frequency.

1. If the scanner is scanning, press MANUAL.
2. Using the number keys, enter the channel number where you want to store a frequency.
3. Press PROGRAM. BANK and the bank number, the selected channel number
and CH, PGM, L/O (if the selected channel number is empty), and 000.0000
MHz appear on the display.
4. Using the number keys, enter the frequency you want to store into that
channel, including the decimal point.
NOTE: Your scanner automatically rounds the entered frequency up to the
closest valid frequency. For example, if you try to enter a frequency
of 151.473, your scanner accepts it as 151.475.
5. Press E to store the frequency.
NOTE: If you enter an invalid frequency in Step 4, the scanner displays
Error. Press CLEAR, then repeat Steps 4 and 5.
6. To program the next channel in sequence, repeat Steps 3-5. To program
another channel (not in sequence), repeat Steps 2-5.

1. Press hold then enter then enter the channel number where you want to store a frequency. Then press "FUNC" and "PGM" and the channel number will appear.
2. Use the number keys to enter a frequency including the decimal point you want to store.
3. Press "E" to store the frequency into the channel.
4. Note - If you entered an invalid frequency in step two "ERROR" will appear and it will beep three times. Enter a valid frequency.
5. The scanner automatically rounds the entered number to the nearest valid frequency. ie an entry of 155.174 will automatically be rounded to 155.175
6. When you enter a frequency into a channel, the scanner automatically turns on the delay function and "DLY" appears. When delay is turned on the scanner automatically pauses scanning.

hi select a bank ,Press Hold. Then enter the channel number where you want to store a frequency, then press Func and Pgm. The channel number appears. 2. Use the number keys and to enter the frequency (including the decimal point) you want to store. 3. Press E to store the frequency into the channel. Notes: • If you entered an invalid frequency in Step 2, Error appears and the scanner beeps three times. Enter a valid frequency. • The scanner automatically rounds the entered number to the nearest valid frequency. For example, if you enter 151.473 (MHz), your scanner accepts it as 151.475. • When you enter a frequency into a channel, the scanner automatically turns on the delay function and DLY appears. When delay is turned on, the scanner automatically pauses scanning

Press the HOLD key, then enter the number where you want to store the frequency, then press FUNC + PGM, the channel number comes up, use the number keys and ./CLR to enter the frequency, including the decimal point you want to store, press E to enter the frequency into the channel ...You can get your frequency's at www.RadioReference.com ...hope this was helpful..

To program known frequencies into your scanner,

1. Press PGM. PGM appears. Then enter the channel number (1-200) where you want to store a frequency, then press PGM again.
2. Use the number keys and DELAY/. to enter the frequency (including the decimal point) you want to store.
3. Press ENT to store the frequency into the channel.
Your scanner automatically rounds the entered frequency down to the closest valid frequency. For example, if you enter a frequency of 151.473, your scanner accepts it as 151.470.

Press DELAY/.if you want the scanner to pause 2 seconds on this channel before it proceeds to the next channel after a transmission ends. The scanner also stores this setting in the channel.

To program the next channel in sequence, press PGM and repeat Steps 2 and 3.

Storing Known Frequencies
Into Channels
1. Press Hold. Then enter the channel number
where you want to store a frequency, then press
Func and Pgm. The channel number appears.
2. Use the number keys and to enter the
frequency (including the decimal point) you want
to store.
Hope this helps you.
3. Press E to store the frequency into the channel.

The way to program this manually is to go to a channel that doesnt have a frequency (press MAN, the channel number and press MAN again, Then press PGM, type in the frequency and press PGM again. That will store the new frequency. If you need a database of frequencies for your area, go to RadioReference.com.

Here is the directions to store frequencies in your scanner:


Storing Known Frequencies
Into Channels

1. Press Hold. Then enter the channel number
where you want to store a frequency, then press
Func and Pgm. The channel number appears.
2. Use the number keys and to enter the
frequency (including the decimal point) you want
to store.
3. Press E to store the frequency into the channel.
Notes:
• If you entered an invalid frequency in Step 2,
Error appears and the scanner beeps three
times. Enter a valid frequency.
• The scanner automatically rounds the entered
number to the nearest valid frequency.
For example, if you enter 151.473 (MHz), your
scanner accepts it as 151.475.
• When you enter a frequency into a channel, the
scanner automatically turns on the delay
function and DLY appears. When delay is turned
on, the scanner automatically pauses scanning
Operation 2 seconds after the end of a transmission before
scanning proceeds to the next channel. To turn
the function off or on, press Func + Dly.
• If you enter a frequency that has already been
entered elsewhere, the scanner sounds an error
tone and displays the channel that was
duplicated. If you entered the frequency by mistake,
press then enter the correct frequency.
To enter the frequency anyway, press E to
accept.
4. To program the next channel in sequence, press
E then repeat Steps 2 and 3.
