- CLEAR ALL CHANNELS IN YOUR COBRA OR UNIDEN/BEARCAT SCANNER
-
- by Bob Parnass, AJ9S
-
- According to the Uniden/Bearcat 200/205XLT Service Infor-
- mation Manual, the following procedure will zero all 200
- channels, then load channels 1-25 with various test fre-
- quencies.
-
- 1. Press and hold three keys: 2, 9, and MAN simultane-
- ously and turn the power switch on.
- 2. Set the power switch to the off position.
- 3. Repress and again hold three keys: 2, 9, and SCAN
- simultaneously and turn the power switch on.
-
- Some of the frequencies will be out of range, like 108.5
- and 66.45 MHz, but will not permit reception.
-
- This procedure works on other models as well. Harold
- Wong tried it on his 100XLT. I tried it on my 760XLT,
- Bill Vojak tried it on his Cobra SR-15, and Mark Smith
- tried it on his Bearcat 70XLT. We all met with success!
