PRO-2046 Programmable 100-Channel Mobile Scanner

(200-0149)

Introduction

Your new RadioShack PRO-2046 Programmable 100-Channel Mobile Scanner lets

you in on all the action! This scanner gives you direct access to over

30,000 exciting frequencies, including those used by police and fire

departments, ambulance and transportation services, aircraft

communications, government agencies, and amateur radio services. You can

select up to 100 channels to scan and you can change your selections at

any time.

Your scanner is preprogrammed with service search banks for convenience.

By pressing a single button, you can quickly search those frequencies most

widely used by public service and other agencies without tedious and

complicated programming. The scanner also lets you group special or

interesting frequencies into their own set of channels.

Compact and versatile, the scanner mounts in your home or vehicle. You

can also connect an external speaker to your scanner, or an AC adapter and

base station antenna (not supplied) to set the scanner up as a base

station in your home.

Your scanner has these features:

HyperScan - lets you scan 50 channels or more per second.

Hypersearch - lets you set the scanner to search at up to

300 steps per second in frequency bands with

5 kHz steps, to help you quickly find

interesting broadcasts.

Four Service Search Banks - lets you Search preset frequencies in separate

police/fire/emergency, Department of

Transportation, highway services, and public

service banks, to make it easy to quickly

identify calls. You can select and search one

or more banks at a time.

Data Detection - while scanning channels or searching, you can

set the scanner to detect non modulated

carriers or data signals, such as preamble

signals for pagers, to keep the scanner from

stopping on these frequencies.

Weather Band Key - scans seven preprogrammed weather frequencies

to keep you informed about current weather

conditions.

Ten Channel Storage Banks - You can store 10 channels in each of 10 banks

to group channels so calls are easier to

identify.

Ten Monitor Memories - you can store 10 frequencies located during a

frequency search, so you can decide if you

want to move them to permanent channel storage

Ten Priority Channels - lets you set the scanner to check up to 10

channels every 2 seconds so you do not miss

important calls.

Nine Frequency Bands - lets you quickly and easily search preset

frequency ranges, so you can find new and

unlisted broadcasts.

Two Frequency Band Search - you can search upward or downward through the

Options preset frequency bands (band Search) or Search

by starting from a specified frequency (direct

search).

Frequency Skip - lets you select up to 20 frequencies for the

scanner to skip during a search, so you can

search more efficiently.

Two-Second Channel - lets you set the scanner so it delays scanning

Scan/Search Delay or searching for 2 seconds before moving to

another channel, so you can hear more replies.

Key Confirmation Tones - the scanner sounds a tone when you perform an

operation correctly, and sounds an error tone

if you make an error.

Memory Backup - keeps channel frequencies stored in memory

for 14 days or more during a power loss.

Lock Out Function - keeps channels you select from being scanned,

so you can skip over busy channels such as

those with a continuous transmission.

Squelch Control - lets you adjust the scanner's sensitivity to

either help the scanner receive weak signals

or help eliminate receiver noise when the

scanner is not receiving a signal, so you can

hear calls instead of static.

Backlit Display - makes it easy to view and change programming

information at any time.

Your Pro-2046 scanner can receive all of these bands:

29-54 MHz (10-Meter Amateur Radio, VHF Lo, 6-Meter Amateur Radio)

108-136.9750 MHz (Aircraft)

137-174 MHz (Government, 2-Meter Amateur Radio, VHF Hi)

406-512 MHz (UHF Lo, 70-Centimeter Amateur Radio, Government, UHF "T"

Band)

806-823.9375 MHz (UHF Public Service)

851-868.9375 MHz (UHF Hi)

896.1125-956 MHz (UHF Hi, 33-Centimeter Amateur Radio)

In addition, your scanner is preprogrammed with these weather service

channels.

162.400 MHz 162.475 MHz 162.550 MHz

162.425 MHz 162.500 MHz

162.450 MHz 162.525 MHz

We recommend you record your scanner's serial number here. The number is

on the scanner's back panel.

Serial Number: _________________________________

FCC Notice

Your scanner might cause TV or radio interference even when it is

operating properly. To determine if your scanner is causing interference,

turn off your scanner. If the interference goes away, your scanner is

causing it. Try to eliminate the interference by:

Moving your scanner away from the receiver.

Connecting your scanner to an outlet that is on a different electrical

circuit from the receiver.

Contacting your local RadioShack store for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop

using your scanner.

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, and

(2) this device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

Scanning Legally

It is legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner can

receive. However, there are some electronic and wire communications that

are illegal to intentionally intercept. These include:

Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other private means of

telephone signal transmission).

Pager transmissions.

Scrambled or encrypted transmissions.

According to the Federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), as

amended, you could be fined and possibly imprisoned for intentionally

intercepting, using, or disclosing the contents of such a transmission

unless you have the consent of a party to the communication (unless such

activity is otherwise illegal). These laws change from time to time and

there might be state or local laws that also affect legal scanner usage.

Special Features Faxback Doc. # 46802

Delay

Many agencies use a two-way radio system that might have a pause of

several seconds between a query and a reply. Your scanner's delay feature

causes it to wait for 2 seconds after each transmission on a channel

before it resumes scanning or searching.

To program a 2 second delay for a channel you select, manually select the

channel then press DELAY until DLY appears.

To program a 2 second delay for a channel while scanning, quickly press

DELAY when the channel appears on the display. DLY appears.

To turn off delay on any active channel, press DELAY when the channel

appears on the display. DLY disappears.

Skipping Frequencies/Channels

You can scan channels and search for frequencies faster by skipping ones

that have a continuous transmission, such as a weather channel. You can

skip up to 20 frequencies during a band, direct, or service bank search,

and you can skip all channels.

To skip a channel/frequency while scanning or searching, press L/OUT/S/S

when the scanner stops on it.

Removing Skip from Frequencies

To remove the skip from a frequency while searching, press 91-100/0 to

stop the search, press /\ or \/ to select the skipped frequency, then

press L/OUT/S/S until L/O disappears from the display. To remove the skip

from all frequencies at once while searching, press and hold down

L/OUT/S/S until the scanner beeps twice.

Notes: If you skip more than 20 frequencies, each new frequency replaces

earlier ones, starting from the first stored frequency.

You can manually select skipped frequencies after you press

91/100/0 to stop a search. The scanner displays L/O when you

select a skipped frequency.

Removing Skip from Channels

To remove the skip from a channel while scanning, press MANUAL to stop the

scan, use the number keys to enter the channel number, then press

L/OUT/S/S until L/O disappears from the display. To remove the skip from

all channels at once while scanning, select the banks containing the

locked channels, press MANUAL, then press and hold down L/OUT/S/S until

the scanner beeps twice.

Priority

The priority feature lets you scan through programmed channels and still

not miss important or interesting calls on specific channels. You can

program one stored channel to each bank as a priority channel (up to 10

stored channels). As the scanner scans each bank, it checks that bank's

priority channel every 2 seconds for activity.

Notes: You cannot use the priority and data detection features at the

same time (see "Detecting Data Signals" below).

You can skip priority channels. If you skip all priority channels,

the display shows P CH LOC OUt when you turn on the priority

feature. See "Skipping Frequencies/Channels" above.

The priority feature must be turned off to listen to monitor

memories.

The scanner automatically designates the first channel in each bank as

that bank's priority channel.

Follow these steps to program a different channel as the priority channel.

1. Use the number keys to enter the channel number you want to program as

the priority channel, then press PRIORITY/H/S. P appears on the

display to the right of the channel number.

3. Repeat Steps 1-2 for each channel you want to program in a bank as a

priority channel.

4. To confirm all priority channel numbers for all banks, press PROGRAM

then repeatedly press PRIORITY/H/S.

To turn on the priority feature, press PRIORITY/H/S during scanning. PRI

appears on the display and the scanner checks the priority channel in each

selected bank every 2 seconds. It stays on the channel if there is

activity, and P appears on the display.

To turn off the priority feature, press PRIORITY/H/S. PRI disappears from

the display.

Note: If you are scanning more than one bank in which a priority channel

has been programmed, the scanner stops on the lowest-numbered

priority channel first while scanning.

Changing The Search Speed

You can adjust your scanner's search speed. You can set the scanner to

search at either 100 steps per second (normal search speed) or 300 steps

per second (HyperSearch speed).

Note: You can use the HyperSearch speed only in 5 kHz-step bands. (See

"Band Mode and Frequency Step" below).

To select the HyperSearch speed during a band or direct search, press

PRIORITY/H/S. SRCH flashes on the display.

Detecting Data Signals

You can set the scanner to detect un-modulated carriers or data signals

(such as preamble signals for pagers) during scanning, band search, direct

search, or service bank search.

Note: You cannot detect data signals in the air band (AM mode). See "Band

Mode and Frequency Step" below.

To detect data signals, press and hold down DATA until DATA appears on the

display. If the scanner pauses on a transmission and detects a data

signal, it resumes searching in 2 or 3 seconds.

To stop detecting data signals, press DATA until DATA disappears from the

display.

Note: You cannot use DATA and PRIORITY at the same time. (See above.)

Listening To The Weather Band

The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) has allocated 11 channels for

use by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NOAA

broadcasts your local forecast and regional weather information. We have

preprogrammed your scanner with seven of the U.S. frequencies available to

NOAA.

To scan the preprogrammed weather channels, press WX/E. WX appears on the

display, and the scanner searches through the weather band and stops on an

active broadcast. If a broadcast is weak, press WX/E again to continue to

search through the weather band.

Note: For a list of all 11 national weather frequencies, see "National

Weather Frequencies" in Faxback Doc. # 17653.

Band Mode and Frequency Step

The scanner scans in the following band modes:

AM (amplitude modulation) - used in aircraft bands.

NFM (narrowband frequency modulation) - used in action bands such as

police, fire, ambulance, Amateur Radio, etc.

This table shows the preset band modes and frequency steps your scanner

uses for each frequency range.

Freq. Range (MHz) Band Mode Freq. Step (kHz)

29.000-54.000 ................. NFM ................................... 5

108.000-136.975 ................ AM ................................. 12.5

144.000-148.000 ................ NFM ................................... 5

148.000-174.000 ................ NFM ................................... 5

406.000-450.000 ................ NFM ................................ 12.5

450.000-470.000 ................ NFM ................................ 12.5

470.000-512.000 ................ NFM ................................ 12.5

806.000-956.000 ................ NFM ................................ 12.5

Note: The band modes and frequency steps are preset. You cannot change

them.

Operation Faxback Doc. # 46801

Turning On The Scanner/Setting Volume and Squelch

1. Turn SQUELCH and VOLUME fully counterclockwise.

2. Turn VOLUME clockwise until you hear a hissing sound.

3. Turn SQUELCH clockwise, then leave it set to a point just after the

hissing sound stops.

Notes: If the scanner picks up unwanted, partial, or very weak

transmissions, turn SQUELCH clockwise to decrease the scanner's

sensitivity to these signals.

If you want to listen to a weak or distant station, turn SQUELCH

counterclockwise.

If the scanner will not scan, turn SQUELCH further clockwise.

Resetting The Scanner

You might need to reset the scanner if any of the following occur:

The scanner's display locks up.

The scanner does not work properly after you connect power.

The scanner is dropped or subjected to a physical or electrical shock.

CAUTION: This procedure clears all the information you have programmed

into the scanner! Use this procedure only when you are sure

your scanner is not working properly.

1. Turn off the scanner.

2. While you press and hold down 11-20/2 and 81-90/9, turn on the

scanner.

Scanning Channels

To scan the stored channels, press SCAN. The scanner scans through all

non-locked channels in the active banks (see "Scanning Channel-Storage

Banks" below and "Skipping Frequencies/Channels" in Faxback Doc. # 46802).

Searching Banks

To search one or more of the service search banks, press any or all of

these buttons.

POLICE FIRE-EMG

DOT

HWY

PUBLIC SVC

This indicator for each service search bank you selected appears on the

display, and the scanner searches through all non-skipped channels (see

"Skipping Frequencies/Channels" in Faxback Doc. # 46802) in the bank(s)

you selected.

The active banks indicator blinks on the display. The scanner searches

the frequencies within the active bank from the lowest to the highest

frequency. If the scanner detects a broadcast on a frequency, it stops on

that frequency. When the broadcast ends, the scanner continues to search

higher frequencies in the bank. When the scanner finishes searching all

frequencies in the bank, it does either of the following:

Returns to the lowest frequency in the bank and starts searching again

(if you selected only one bank).

Searches the frequencies in the next bank you selected (if you selected

more than one bank).

To turn off a service search bank, press the button until its indicator

disappears from the display.

Note: There must be at least one active search bank. You cannot turn off

all search banks.

Scanning Channel Storage Banks

Note: You cannot scan a channel-storage bank until you have stored

frequencies in it. See "Storing Frequencies into Channels" below.

To select one or more channel storage banks while scanning, select each

bank you want to scan by pressing its number key until the bank's number

appears on the display. The scanner scans through all non skipped

channels (see "Skipping Frequencies/Channels" in Faxback Doc. # 46802) in

the bank(s) you selected.

To turn off channel storage banks, press the number key for the bank(s)

until the bank's number disappears. The scanner does not scan any of the

stored channels within banks you have turned off.

Note: You can manually select any channel in a bank, even if the bank is

turned off.

Storing Frequencies into Channels

You can store up to 100 frequencies into your scanner's channels.

Good references for active frequencies are RadioShack's "Police Call Radio

Guide Including Fire and Emergency Services," "Aeronautical Frequency

Directory" and "Maritime Frequency Directory". We update these directories

every year, so be sure to get a current copy. See also "Guide to the

Action Bands" in Faxback Doc. # 17653.

If you do not have a reference to frequencies in your area, follow the

steps in "Searching Frequency Bands" or "Searching Service Search Banks"

below to search for transmissions.

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,

any previously stored frequency and PGM appear on the display.

Note: If no frequency has been stored in the selected channel,

000.0000 MHz and L/O 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 WX/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.
