The new Radio Shack PRO-50 Programmable Scanner lets you in on all the
action!  This scanner gives you direct access to more than 22,000
frequencies that include police, ambulance, ham radio, and transportation
services.  You select up to twenty channels for your PRO-50 to scan
through, and you can change your selection at any time.

The secret to your scanner's ability to scan so many frequencies is its
custom-designed microprocessor - a tiny, built-in computer.  The
microprocessor also gives your scanner these special features:

    New Smaller Design - makes the scanner more convenient and easier to
                         use.

  Front Panel Keyboard - lets you easily enter and change frequencies
                         whenever you want.

         Memory Backup - Keeps the channel frequencies stored in your
                         scanner's memory for up to 1 hour when you change
                         the batteries or during a power failure if you
                         are using an external power source.

   2-Second Scan Delay - delays the scanning mode for two seconds before
                         moving to another channel so you can hear more
                         replies.

Liquid Crystal Display - shows the channel number, the frequency you have
                         selected, and several other indicators

     Lock-out Function - keeps channels you select from being scanned.

        Monitor Memory - temporarily saves a frequency you locate during a
                         frequency.

     Frequency Search - scans the frequencies and stops when it finds an
                        active frequency - great for locating active in
                        your area!
