You might be out of range to pick up any traffic, but with the L/O out function try press and hold it for about 5 secs this should cancel all the the current L/O channels. Other than that i would maybe try to pick up something you know is transmitting like a cb....and see if your scanner picks up that if it dosent well you know the problems lies deeper than a simple L/O

have any more probs im on msn a fair bit i may be able to help further....

Hi Annt
No I tried what you suggested, and nothing, might have to take it to someone to check out, cant get the L/O on screen to go out tried all sorts, I should get a signal real good, got a friend over with her scanner programmed same code and hers works fine....but thanks for your help!

The scanner might be 'locked' or 'frozen' and need to be reset. Most scanners have a key combination that resets the scanner.
