Your RadioShack PRO-2015 200-Channel Programmable Home Scanner lets you in 
on all the action!  This scanner gives you direct access to over 25,000 
frequencies, including those used by police and fire departments, 
ambulance services, government agencies, air, and amateur radio services.

Your scanner includes these special features:

       Five Service Banks - lets you search preset frequencies in separate
                            fire/police, air, ham radio, marine, and
                            weather banks, to make it easy to locate
                            specific types of calls.

             200 Channels - lets you store up to 200 of your favorite
                            frequencies for easy scanning and recall.

         Two-Second Delay - lets you set the scanner so it delays scanning
                            or searching for two seconds before moving to
                            another channel or frequency so you can hear
                            more replies.

Ten-Channel Storage Banks - you can store up to 20 channels in each of 10
                            different banks to group channels so you can
                            more easily identify calls.

      20 Monitor Memories - lets you temporarily save up to 20 frequencies
                            you locate during a search, so you can move
                            selected frequencies to channel storage later.

            Memory Backup - keeps the channel frequencies stored in memory
                            for about 1 hour during a power loss.

HyperSearch and Hyperscan - enable the scanner to search at up to 50 steps
                            per second and scan at up to 25 channels per
                            second, to help you quickly find interesting
                            broadcasts.

Duplicate Frequency Check - automatically notifies you if you are about to
                            store a frequency you have already stored, to
                            help avoid wasting storage space.

          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.

            Direct Search - lets you search for new and unlisted
                            frequencies starting from a specified
                            frequency.

        Lock-Out Function - lets you set your scanner to lock out up to
                            200 channels when scanning or skip up to 50
                            specified frequencies when searching.

   Liquid Crystal Display - makes it easy to view and change programming
                            information at any time.

        Display Backlight - makes the scanner easy to read in low light
                            situations.

     Supplied Telescoping - lets you receive strong local signals.
                  Antenna 

External Antenna Terminal - lets you connect an external antenna (not
                            supplied) to the scanner.

          Dual Conversion - helps prevent interference from image
                            frequencies.

We recommend you record your scanner's serial number here.  The number is 
on the scanner's back panel.

FCC Notice

Your scanner might cause TV or radio interference even when it is 
operating properly.  To determine if your scanner is causing the 
interference, turn off your scanner.  If the interference goes away, your 
scanner is causing it.  Try the following methods to eliminate the 
interference.

  Move you scanner away from the TV or radio.

  Connect your scanner to an outlet that is on a different electrical
  circuit from the TV or radio.

  Contact 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 must not cause harmful 
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, 
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Scanning Legally

Your scanner covers frequencies used by many different groups including 
police and fire departments, ambulance services, government agencies, 
private companies, amateur radio services, military operations, pager 
services, and wireline (telephone and telegraph) service providers.  It is 
legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner can receive.  
However, there are some transmissions you should never intentionally 
listen to.

These include:

  Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other private means of
  telephone signal transmission).

  Pager transmissions.

  Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions.

According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), you are 
subject to fines and possible imprisonment for intentionally listening to, 
using, or divulging the contents of such a transmission unless you have 
the consent of a part to the communication (unless such activity is 
otherwise illegal).

This scanner has been designed to prevent reception of illegal 
transmissions.  This is done to comply with the legal requirement
that scanners be manufactured so as to not be easily modifiable to
pick up those transmissions.  Do not open your scanner's case to
make any modifications that could allow it to pick up transmissions
that it is not legal to listen to.  Doing so could subject you to
legal penalties.

We encourage responsible, legal scanner use.
