About Memory Back-up Your BC244CLT has a convenient memory back-up system. In the event of a power failure, the scanner will retain channel information for an indefinite amount of time. Channel information is stored in non-volatile memory. Scanning Mode Press SCAN.

It is possible that your area is covered by more than one weather station. All weather channels transmit continuous broadcasts. Once the Weather Scan stops on a transmission, it remains on that channel. When you press WX, the BC244CLT immediately finds an active broadcast. If the broadcast sounds weak and distant, press WX again to look for a closer station. In some parts of the country, you may not be able to monitor weather broadcasts, such as in low-lying areas. To exit Weather Channel Scan mode, press SCAN, MANUAL, or ON/OFF. Do not program a weather frequency into one of the 30 channels. Because weather channels transmit continuously, the scanner remains on that channel, disrupting the scanning cycle. The Weather Scan feature is provided specifically to avoid this occurrence. 18 Priority Scanning Priority Scan is like a dual watch function. When you activate Priority Scan mode, the scanner keeps track of the activity on the priority channel while scanning the other channels. A constant P R I appears on the display Priority Scan mode does not operate when the scanner is in Weather mode. Every two seconds, the scanner checks the priority channel for activity. If a signal is found, the scanner remains on the priority channel until the transmission ends.
