How to program Uniden 72XLT / 73XLT / 92XLT / 93XLT

Got the same scanner; fantastic when it works...

Turn it on

1) dial in you channel number
2) press "hold"
2) press "function"
3) press "E"
4) dial in your frequency without the decimal point.
so 468.075 will be 468075
5) press "E"

I hope this helps
