Question about Radio Shack Pro-96 Scanner

Cannot get the Pro-96 out of PAUSED mode

Every time I power up my Pro-96 scanner, it is in PAUSED mode and no matter what I do, I cannot get it out of that mode. Has anyone else experienced this problem and, if so, how did you solve it? Thanks so much in advance...

I would visit the Radio Shack site--most aside from the button reset have another way to do this that will clear the issue.

Might also try to Google the model number with keywords to see what you can find.

Just about any electronics/radio shop can repair your scanner, but for the best job with factory trained technicians, factory parts, and a repair warranty, you can take the unit to any Radio Shack and they will either have the job done locally or send it in for factory repair.

My Pro 96 does not come out of Squelch mode on any channels

Are you hearing any communications at all? Sounds to me like someone has programmed the ctcss tones for each frequency. Try programming a frequency without a tone and you should get a squelch. If not then you probably have to return to the repair shop. GOOD LUCK.

You more than likely want the FM mode. If you are listening to a trunked agency then you will have to know if they are on the MOT, or EDACS system and choose the correct one.
