I- Changing The Frequency Step The frequency step is the minimum space between frequencies in the Manual or Search Mode.

Using Signal Attenuation You can use the Signal Attenuation feature in the manual, search, or Scan Mode. When the ATT indicator is on, the incoming signal strength is attenuated (reduced) by about 14 dB. This prevents unusually strong signals from over-loading the scanner.
