Your RadioShack PRO-62 Programmable Scanner lets you in on all the action!
This scanner gives you direct access to more than 31,000 frequencies
including police, ambulance, ham radio, and transportation services.  You
can select up to 200 channels to scan, and change your selection at any
time.  The secret to your scanner's ability to scan so many frequencies
is its custom-designed microprocessor - a tiny, built-in computer.

Your scanner also includes these special features:

Triple Conversion Superheterodyne Tuning - virtually eliminates intermediate
                  frequency imaging interference (common to 800 MHz dual
                  conversion receivers) so you can clearly hear only the
                  scanner's received frequency.

Hyperscan - searches through unstored frequencies at 50 steps per second
            or scans stored channels at 25 channels per second.

Monitor Memory - lets you temporarily save up to ten frequencies you find
                 during a frequency search so you can decide later if you
                 want to store any of them into permanent channels.

Two-Second Scan Delay - delays scanning for about two seconds before
                        moving to another channel so you can hear more
                        replies.

Ten Channel Storage Banks - let you store 20 channels in each of 10 storage
                            banks to group frequencies so you can easily
                            identify calls.

Liquid-Crystal Display - shows the selected channel and frequency and the
                         selected modes.

Memory Backup - protects the stations stored in your scanner's memory for
                up to 1 hour without the battery.

Lockout Function - lets you set your scanner to skip over specified
                   channels.

Keylock - prevents you from accidentally changing the scanner's 
          programming.

Priority Channel - lets you designate a channel to be scanned every two
                   seconds so you do not miss important calls.

AM/FM Mode - automatically selects the most common reception type for the
             band you are scanning, and lets you override the default
             selection.

Battery-Saving Circuit - draws only 40% of the normal power.

Optional Power Sources - let you power the scanner from internal batteries,
                         standard AC power, or from your vehicle's battery.

Ni-Cad Battery Charging Circuit - lets you recharge nickel-cadmium 
                                  batteries while they are inside the
                                  battery compartment.

FCC NOTICE

Your scanner might cause radio or TV interference even when it is operating
properly.  To determine whether 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 FCC Rules.  Operation is subject to
the following conditions:

1.  This device may not cause harmful interference.

2.  This device must accept any interference that may cause undesired
