Radio Shack Pro-2055 Base Scanner - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
I was curious, if i put my 2055 scanner on 12
You won't damage anything with 12 volts. Equipment built for use in automobiles will often have a DC input marked 13.8 volts because it's the voltage delivered by a fully-charged battery. But any supply around 12 volts will work. Just be sure the supply has enough current available (around an amp should be fine for a scanner), and that you get the polarity right when connecting it.

Looking remove all stored channels
Initializing the scanner will erase all programmed information and return your scanner to its original factory settings. To initialize your scanner:
- Power the scanner OFF.
- Power the scanner ON. "Multi-system Trunking Scanner" appears on the display.
- Press 0 (zero) while the above message is displayed.
- Press 1.
- Press ENT. "Initializing please stand by" appears on the display.
DO NOT power the scanner OFF until the initializing process is complete and the display shows "M000 Bank0 Ch00"

Is the pro 2055 digital ?
The PRO-2055 is a versatile conventional/trunking scanner, but it does not have the capability to monitor APCO-25 digital transmissions. For an operating manual that is "Easier To Read" than the factory operating instructions, follow this link:

How do I unlock channels (pro-2055)
the unlock command is done from the manual mode.
If you scanner is in the scan mode, push the "MANUAL"button to stop the scanning feature.
Next you need to go to the channel you want to unlock. If you are only a few channels away, while in the manual mode, push the up or down arrows to step (one push per channel to be stepped though) to the channel to be unlocked.
A direct method is to enter the channel number on the keypad and then push the "manual" button. The display should show the channel you desire.
If the channel lockout is on, the second line on the display will show "LO+". Push the keypad button marked "L/OUT" once. The "LO+" should change on the display from uppercase to a lowercase "lo+". The channel is now unlocked.

LCD not working
This is a common problem and was answered bu LED78 in another post
"This problem is caused by oxidation on the cable tip. All that has to be done is pull the flex cable from the connector on the back of the display and cut off the tip of it. Put a dab od antioxident on the cable and put it back in the connector."

I need to know how to program this scanner. Radio
The programming instructions are too detailed and lengthy to post here, so here's a link to the manual for your scanner. It will walk you through the programming process.

Police scanner stuck on one frequency, it won't
Is the squelch turned to where there's no noise when there is no transmission being heard on the radio? Also make sure that all the channels haven't gotten locked out. If they are, you should see something like L/O on the screen.

My screen has gone blank.
This problem is caused by oxidation on the cable tip. All that has to be done is pull the flex cable from the connector on the back of the display and cut off the tip of it. Put a dab od antioxident on the cable and put it back in the connector. This has fixed several scanners we have had come through our shop.
