1 ..-- Introduction The UBC9000XLT is a sophisticated information radiowith automatic scanning capabilities. You can use it at home as a base unit, or install in your vehicle as a mobile unit. The UBC9000XLT can store frequencies such as, police, fire/emergency, marine, air, weather, and other broadcasts into 20 banks of 25 channels each. The new Rotary Tuner feature enables rapid and easy selection of channels and frequencies. And with AUTO STORE, you can automatically program any channel. With

r Feature Highlights . TwinTurboScan/Search- This lightning-fasttechnology enables the UBC9000XLT to scan up to 100 channels per second and search up to 300 steps per second (in 5kHz steps). Because the frequency coverage is so large (see "Specifications,"page 53, for band listing), a very fast scanning system is essential. That is why we combined our latest technology - Turbo Scan and Search - into the UBC9000XL T. . RotaryTunerControl- Turn the large Rotary Tuner to select the desired frequenc

r .-- What is Scanning? Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way communications (listed below) do not transmit continuously. The UBC9000XL T scans programmed channels at the rate of up to 100 channels per second until it finds an active frequency. Scanning stops on an active frequency, and remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, and no response is detected, the scanning cycle resumes I until another transmission is received. .. - -
