I'm having problems programming radio frequencies on my scanner.

These steps were listed on their website:
PROGRAMMING CHANNELS
1. Turn on your scanner by turning the volume clockwise.
2. The scanner might start scanning. If so, press MANUAL to stop the scanning.
3. Enter the channel number that you want to program and press MANUAL.
4. Enter a frequency including the decimal point. The decimal point shows up on the display as a -- (dash).
5. Press Enter to store the frequency.
6. To confirm the proper entry, press REVIEW. The programmed frequency appears on the display one digit at a time.
7. To program more channels repeat steps 3-4. (IR-07/29/96)

hi select a bank ,Press Hold. Then enter the channel number where you want to store a frequency, then press Func and Pgm. The channel number appears. 2. Use the number keys and to enter the frequency (including the decimal point) you want to store. 3. Press E to store the frequency into the channel. Notes: • If you entered an invalid frequency in Step 2, Error appears and the scanner beeps three times. Enter a valid frequency. • The scanner automatically rounds the entered number to the nearest valid frequency. For example, if you enter 151.473 (MHz), your scanner accepts it as 151.475. • When you enter a frequency into a channel, the scanner automatically turns on the delay function and DLY appears. When delay is turned on, the scanner automatically pauses scanning

To enter a known frequency into your BC92XLT:

- Power the scanner ON
- Press the HOLD key
- Enter the number of the channel that you wish to program (1 through 200)
- Press the FUNC and PGM keys
- Enter the frequency, including decimal point (e.g., 155.455)
- Press E to enter the frequency into the scanner's memory.

More detailed programming instructions can be found in the factory user's manual which you can download and print, at no cost, here:
