Welcome to the world of computerized radio scanning. The Uniden Bearcat@760
XLTisthe result ofyears of research and development, and incorporates many un-
ique, state-of-the-art design concepts. Microelectronics allows so many sophisti-
cated features to be included in such a small, stylish unit. The Uniden Bearcat@
760XLT uses the most recent technological advances to satisfy the highest per-
formance standards- that can be achieved in a hand held unit. The custom inte-
grated circuits, microprocessor, liquid crystal display, and other components have

on or off, and controls the audio
output level.
2. Squelch - Eliminates the annoying
"rushing" sound that ispresent be-
tween transmissions when no sig-
nal isbeing received. Proper adjust-
ment of this control keeps the re-
ceiver quiet and allows scanning
until a signal is received.

The USC 760XLT has 100 memory
channels, each of which can be pro-
grammed to store one frequency. The
channels are divided into 5-20 channel
banks, useful for storing similar fre-
quencies in order to maintain faster
scanning cycles. When scan ispressed,
each of the programmed frequencies
within a selected bank will be sampled
for a transmission (locked channels will
be skipped} at the rate of about 15
channels per second. If an active fre-
quency is found the unit will stop and
monitor that frequency until there isno
longer any activity. A two second delay
can be added to each channel and will
allow the unit to monitor the frequen-
cy for a return or continued transmis-
sion. If, after two seconds, the fre-
quency remains inactive, the scanning
cycle will resume.
When the unit is first turned on, each
channel will contain "000.000". When
new frequencies are programmed, the
old will be erased. Ifan invalid frequen-
cy is entered, "Error" will be displayed
and the old frequency will return. "E
Loc" will also be displayed if memory
lock is on.
To operate the scanner make sure that
the power iscorrectly connected to the
unit. Turn the volume control on and
adjust the desired level. Adjust the
squelch by turning the knob fully
clockwise until a rushing sound is
heard. Turn the knob back until the re-
ceiver issilent. After the channels have
been programmed, operation issimple.
Press the scan key to scan all the chan-
nels, press the manual key to stop the
scanning, and manually step through
the channels.
Note: The unit must be in the scan
mode to select or deselect a channel
LCDDisplay
The USC 760XLT has a backlit display
which shows the current channel and
frequency as well as other operational
modes. When the unit isscanning, the
channel number will rapidly advance
while the frequency display will go
blank. When the scanner is stopped
the current channel and frequency will
again be displayed.
When frequencies are programmed
the display will show the digits as they
are entered. The display will also show
"PRI"when the priority mode is on, "LI
0" whenever a channel appears that
has been locked out, and "DLY"when-
ever a channel has been programmed
for delay. In the upper left hand corner
of the display the numbers 1-5 will be
present. These are the bank indicator
numbers. These are selected or dese-
lected during the scan sequence by the
use of the numeric pad.
Programming
Toprogram a frequency into a channel,
press the digits of that frequency in-
cluding the decimal point and then
press the enter key. If an invalid fre-
quency is entered, the display will
show "Error." To change a frequency
enter the new one and the old one will
be erased.

Specifications are typical and subject to
change without notice. Birdies
All radios are subject to receiving unde-
sired signals. If the UBC 760XLT stops
during scan mode and no sound is
heard, it may be receiving a "Birdie."
Birdies are internally generated signals
inherent in the electronics of the re-
ceiver. Press the Scan key to continue

of interest, you can press the HOLDkey
to stop. If the scanner has already re-
sumed searching, press HOLD and
then use the HOLD and LIMITkeys to
step the frequency up or down. (HOLD
to step up, LIMITto step down).
Youcan also program the channels di- .
rectly from the search function. To do
this, firstgo to the channel numberyou
wish to use, and then begin the search
function as described above. When
you encounter a frequency that you
wish to save, press HOLDto stop, and
then press E (enter) to save the fre-
quency. If you wish to repeat the
procedure for another channel, go to
that channel and resume searching.
To select or deselect a channel
bank
When a bank number at the top of the
display is visible, it means that the
numbered bank is currently selected.
When it is not visible, it means that the
bank is deselected. While the unit is
scanning, pressing the appropriate
number key will select or deselect the
desired bank.
Features Search - Use the search mode to look
for new active frequencies within the
bands of your scanner.
Enter the lower limit frequency on the
keypad and press the limit key;
Enter the higher limit frequency and
press the limit key again.
These two frequencies set the range
that the unit will search. Press the
search key to start searching. Ifan ac-
tive frequency isfound the scanner will
stop to monitor the signal. Press the
hold key to hold the search on this fre-
quency. Press the hold key again to
step up to the next frequency or press
the limit key to step down to the previ-
ous frequency. When the signal stops
the unit will continue searching. Press
the manual key to leave the search
mode.
The following is a brief description of
the operational features of the UBC
760XLT.
Manual Channel Selection - To
manually select a channel, press the
manual key repeatedly until the de-
sired channel number appears in the
display.
or
Press the channel number you wish to
access, then press the manual key. The
scanner will automatically advance to
the desired channel regardless of the
bank status.
Lockout - Select the channel to be
skipped. Press the lockout key. The
lockout indicator will appear in the dis-
play whenever that channel also ap-
pears. To take lockout off press the
lockout keyon that channel. The lock-
out key also functions to eliminate any
locked out channels within a certain
bank. Simplypress the lockout key for
about 2.5 seconds to "Clear" the entire
bank.
LOOP FUNCTION
YourUniden Bearcat 760XLT has been
provided with the ability to program 5
frequency bands LJ to L5. Toprogram
these frequency bands it is only neces-
sary to input an upper frequency and a
lower frequency to specify a search
range within one band (66 - 88, J08 -
136, J36 - J74, 350 - 5 J2, or 806 -
956).
In the following example, the pro-
gramming ofone frequency band on L2
will be initiated.
Priority - When it is important to keep
track of the activity on one frequency
while listening to others, the priority
function should be used. Program the
important frequency into channel one.
Pressthe priority key to activate the pri-
ority function. Every2 seconds the unit
will check channel one for activity Ithe
priority indicator willappear in the dis-
play). Ifa transmission is found the unit
will monitor that channel. Ifno signal is
found, the unit will return to the previ-
ous channel and function. Press the
priority keyagain to turn off the priority
function. When priority is on, the au-
dio may be periodically interrupted.

ing LJ, L2, L3, L4, or LS.
Every other function that is described
in the search mode isalso active in the

key.
.HEI.PF
The UBC760XLT isa high quality elec-
tronic radio receiver. The following
hints should help you understand and
enjoy your unit.
J. Make sure the unit is turned off be-
fore disconnecting the power. You
may want to record the pro-
grammed frequencies before power
isinterrupted in case memory islost.
2. Ifmemory is lost, simply reprogram
each channel. Memory loss will be
indicated by unfamiliar frequencies
or "000.000" in each channel.
3. If strong interference or electrical
noise is received, you may need to
relocate your scanner. A higher ele-
vation such as the second floor may
provide better reception.
TROUBLE CHECK
l.iHI'l\In."
4. Whenever the keypad is used it is

center of each key.
5. Do not use the scanner in high
moisture environment such as the
kitchen or the bathroom.
6. Clean the outside of the cabinet
with a mild detergent. Do not use
abrasive cleansers or solvents. Be
careful not to rub LCD window
area.
