Your RadioShack PRO-2014 50-Channel Programmable Home Scanner lets you in

exciting frequencies, including those used by police and fire departments,
ambulance services, government agencies, and amateur radio services. The

predefined ranges of frequencies, so you can hear broadcasts of the same
type.
Your scanner includes all these special features:
50 Channels - lets you store up to 50 of your
favorite frequencies for easy
scanning and recall.
Two Frequency Search Options - you can search upward or
downward through the preset
frequency bands (band search) or
start from a specified frequency
(direct search).
Monitor Memory - lets you temporarily save a
frequency located during a
direct search, so you can decide
if you want to move it to a
channel.
Two-Second Delay - lets you set the scanner so it
delays scanning or searching for
2 seconds before moving to
another channel or frequency so
you can hear more replies.
Weather Band Key - scans 10 preprogrammed weather
frequencies to keep you informed
about current weather conditions.
Memory Backup - keeps channel frequencies stored
in memory for 1 hour or more
during a power loss.
Lock-Out Function - keeps selected channels 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 low enough to receive
weak signals or high enough to
eliminate receiver noise when not
receiving a signal.
Liquid Crystal Display - makes it easy to view and change
programming information at any
time.
Supplied Telescoping Antenna - lets you receive strong local
signals.
External Antenna Terminal - lets you connect an external
antenna (not supplied) to the
scanner.
Hyperscan - scans programmed channels at up
to 25 channels per second.
Hypersearch - searches programmed channels at
up to 50 steps per second.

SCANNING LEGALLY
Scanning is a fun and interesting hobby. You can hear police and fire
departments, ambulance services, government agencies, private companies,
amateur radio services, aircraft, and military operations. 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
listening to, 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.
