It is possible to find the manual online for the Realistic Pro 2021 scanner at www.scancat.com/OnLineHelp/OEM_Radio_Owners_Manuals/RadioSha Here, you can find all the detailed instructions for programming your scanner. For a brief summary about you to set your scanner up, use the following steps.
First, turn the power on. The scanner will automatically begin to scan when the SQ is on. Pressing ‘manual’ once will put the scanner into the channel selecting mode, pressing ‘manual’ again will advance the channels from one to 200. To select a specific channel, type the number onto the keypad and press ‘manual’. Then press ‘program’ to set to program mode. One route you can take when programming the scanner is to key in the frequency by pressing ‘limit’ and keying in a lower frequency with the numerical key and press ‘enter’. Then, using the numerical keys again, key in the higher frequency and press ‘enter.
You can then use the arrows to search through the frequencies. The up arrow allows you to search from the lower frequencies, while the down arrow allows you to search from the high frequencies. You can then press the ‘mon’ button to store that specific frequency in the search mode. The alternative way to program the scanner is to command the desired frequency into each channel. Key the frequency in with the numerical keys and press ‘enter’ to store it. Press ‘program’ to advance to the next channel and again key in the frequency numerically to store it. You can then press ‘scan’ to set it to scan the channels one - 200 when squelch is on.
If you have any undesired channels that you wish to skip, you can select these by pressing the ‘lock out’ button. To set any priority options, press ‘program’ and channel numeral keys, press ‘priority’ to set the option to the desired frequency.
