Abstract
To lock out certain channels in a scanning receiver, a counter in the scanning control circuit is manually stepped to the channel to be locked out and a signal is recorded in a memory at that point by depressing a switch while the memory is addressed by the circuitry which causes scanning. When the scanning circuit thereafter reaches the same channel, the address of that channel causes a readout from the memory which electronically inhibits the scanning of the locked-out channel. With minor modification, the circuitry may accommodate other electrically recorded switching operations such as band switching operations and priority operations.
