Before you use this scanner, please read and observe the following:

Earphone Warning!

The output of the Phone jack is monaural. Set the volume to a comfortable audio level coming from the speaker before plugging in the monaural earphone. Otherwise you might experience some discomfort or possible hearing damage if the volume suddenly becomes too loud because of the volume control or squelch control setting. This may be particularly true of the type of earphone that is placed in the canal.

The

AE 77 H Hand Scanner is a

sophisticated information radio that allows you to monitor 6 different frequency bands. It is a state-of-the-art radio with scanning capabilities, and it can save up to 100 different frequencies in memory.

What is Scanning?

Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way communications do not transmit continuously. The AE 77H scans programmed channels until it finds an active frequency.

Scanning stops on an active frequency and remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanning cycle resumes until another transmission is received.

Introduction

• 100 Channels – Program one

frequency into each channel. You must have at least one channel programmed to use the scan mode.

• 29 MHz-512 MHz – Search these

frequency ranges with your scanner. (The frequency coverage is not totally continuous from 29 MHz to 512 MHz.)

• 6 Preprogrammed Band Search –

(See page 19 for Frequency Bands)

Feature Highlights

These are helpful guidelines when using your new scanner:

• If your scanner receives interference or electrical noise, move the scanner or its antenna away from the source.

• If you need to improve reception, use an optional antenna designed for multi-band coverage. (You can purchase this type of antenna at a local electronics store.)

Setup

• Priority Channel Scanning –

Allows you to designate a priority channel which is monitored every two seconds when Priority Scanning is selected.

• Manual Channel Access – Go directly to any channel.

• Memory Backup – Frequencies programmed in channels are retained in memory. If power is completely disconnected, the frequencies are retained for one hour.

• Preset Two-second Delay –

Scanner waits two seconds after transmission stops before resuming scanning.

• LCD Back-Light – An orange LCD light remains on for 15 seconds when is pressed.

• Air Band Step - You can select the AIR Band step from 12.5 kHz to

8.33 kHz. There are two AIR BAND STEPs in the AIRCRAFT Range. Press and hold STEP/PROG to switch the AIR BAND STEPs to find the appropriate range in your area.
