NWR-SAME/Weather Alert
— you
can set the scanner to sound an alert
when it receives NOAA’s Specific
Area Message Encoding (SAME) cod-
ed weather emergency signal, provid-
ing more complete information about
weather conditions in your immediate
area and letting you avoid hearing
alerts for geographical areas that do
not interest you.
Remote PC Function
— lets you con-
trol the PRO-2052 from your personal
computer.
Five Scan Lists
— let you store up to
50 IDs in each tracking bank (up to a
total of 1000).
Triple-Conversion Circuitry
— virtu-
ally eliminates any interference from
IF (intermediate frequency) images,
so you hear only the selected frequen-
cy.
Scan Delay
— delays scanning for
about 2 seconds before moving to an-
other channel in conventional mode,
so you can hear more replies that are
made on the same channel. In trunk
scanning mode, it delays for about 5
seconds before moving to another ID.
Lock-Out Function
— lets you set
your scanner to skip over specified
channels or frequencies when scan-
ning or searching, and skip over IDs
when tracking trunked systems.
Priority Channels
— lets you pro-
gram one channel in each bank (10 in
all). As the scanner scans a bank, it
checks the bank’s priority channel ev-
ery 2 seconds so you don't miss trans-
missions on that channel.
Five Service-Search Banks
— let
you search preset frequencies in sep-
arate public service, police, fire/emer-
gency, aircraft, and weather banks, to
make it easy to locate specific types of
calls.
HyperSearch
and HyperScan
let you set the scanner to search at up
to 300 steps per second (in frequency
bands with 5 kHz steps) and scan at
up to 50 channels per second, to help
you quickly find interesting broad-
casts. (The normal search speed is
100 steps per second).
Data Signal Skip
— lets you set the
scanner to skip non-modulated or data
signals during scanning and searches.
This lets the scanner avoid non-voice
signals, making a scan or search fast-
er.
Manual Access
— you can directly
access any stored channel by entering
that channel’s number.
Liquid-Crystal Display
— makes it
easy to view and change program-
ming information.
Display Backlight
— makes the
scanner easy to read in low-light situa-
tions.
