The FCC Wants You to Know
This scanner has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
scanning receiver, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
a residential installation. This scanner generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this scanner does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the scanner on
and off, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the scanner and the receiver
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and 2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Scanning Legally
Your scanner covers frequencies used by many different groups,
including police and fire departments, ambulance services, government
agencies, private companies, amateur radio services, military operations,
pager services, and wireline (telephone and telegraph) service providers.
It is legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner can receive.
However, there are some transmissions that you should never
intentionally listen to. These include:
• Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other private means of
telephone signal transmission)
• Pager transmissions
• Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions
According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), you are
subject to fines and possible imprisonment for intentionally listening to,
using, or divulging the contents of such a conversation unless you have
the consent of a party to the conversation (unless such activity is
otherwise illegal). This scanner has been designed to prevent the
reception of cellular telephone transmissions and the decoding of
scrambled transmissions.

This is done to comply with the legal requirement that scanners be
manufactured so they are not easy to modify to pick up these
transmissions. Do not open your scanner’s case to make any
modifications that could allow it to pick up transmissions that are illegal to
monitor. Modifying or tampering with your scanner’s internal components
or using it in a way other than as described in this manual could
invalidate your warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.
In some areas, mobile and/or portable use of this scanner is unlawful or
requires a permit. Check the laws in your area. It is also illegal in many
areas (and a bad idea everywhere) to interfere with the duties of public
safety officials by traveling to the scene of an incident without
authorization.

Introduction
Your BC370CRS scanner is a multi-featured conventional channel
scanner with All Hazards alert. You can easily enter and store frequencies
for police, fire/emergency, marine, air, amateur, and other radio services
into 300 channels distributed over ten banks.
The scanner also alerts you when NOAA (National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration) or any broadcast station the scanner is tuned
to issues an EAS (Emergency Alert System) signal. These alerts are
issued for severe weather, homeland security, and law enforcement
events (such as Amber alerts).
Your BC370CRS also has a built-in RCC (Radio Controlled Clock) that
automatically sets to the precise current time based on the NIST (National
Institution of Standards and Time) nationwide broadcast*. For more
information about the standard time signal, visit the National Institute of
Use your scanner to monitor:
• Analog public safety channels
• Police and fire departments (including rescue and paramedics)
• NOAA weather transmissions (including 3 Canadian Coast Guard
channels)
• Business/Industrial radio and utilities
• Marine and amateur (ham radio) bands
• Aircraft (commercial and private) band
• Railroad
• AM/FM Broadcast Stations
• TV Channels 2-13

Setting Up The Scanner
These guidelines will help you install and use your new scanner:
• If your scanner receives interference or electrical noise, move the
scanner or its antenna away from the source. You might also try
changing the height or angle of the antennas.
• Use an optional mono earphone or mono headset with proper
impedance for private listening.
• Do not use the scanner in high-moisture environments such as in the
kitchen or bathroom.
• Avoid placing the scanner in direct sunlight or near heating elements
or vents.
Connecting Power
• Insert the supplied AC
Adapter’s barrel plug into the
power jack on the back of the
scanner. Then plug the Adapter
into a standard household
outlet that supplies 120V AC,
60Hz. Do not plug the adapter
into a switch controlled outlet.
• Open the battery compartment
and insert 3 AA batteries.
Be sure to note the polarity
markings in the battery
compartment. You can use either
alkaline or rechargeable batteries, but
the scanner will not recharge batteries
in the compartment.
• Use only fresh alkaline AA batteries.
Rechargeable batteries can be used,
but battery life is shorter than with
alkaline batteries.
• Always remove old or weak batteries.
Batteries can leak chemicals that
destroy electronic circuits.
• Do not mix old and new batteries,
different types of batteries (standard,
alkaline, or rechargeable) or
rechargeable batteries of different
capacities.

Note that the batteries are intended to provide backup power for the clock
and for scanning for a short time. When the backup batteries becomes
too low,
appears and flashes. Promptly replace the batteries.
When you either install batteries or connect the AC Adapter to a standard
US wall outlet, the scanner powers on and goes to STANDBY mode.
The display shows the initial clock time of 12:00 AM. The scanner
remains in STANDBY mode.
Connecting an Antenna
The scanner uses an
external loop antenna to
receive AM broadcast
stations and an external
telescopic antenna to
receive all other signals.
Connect the supplied rod
antenna by pushing the
antenna’s connector onto
the antenna jack on the
back of the scanner and
twisting it to the desired
angle. Connect the two
wires from the loop
antenna to the AM RADIO
ANT terminals on the
back of the scanner.
* Carefully remove the tube inserted before using the
AM Antenna Jack. When the Jack is not in use, keep
the tube mounted.
You can also use an external antenna (not supplied) to help to bring in
weaker signals. Use RG58, 50-Ohm lead with a BNC connector to
connect the antenna to the scanner. Connect and mount the antenna
according to the instructions provided with the antenna.
CAUTION: Be sure to follow all safety warnings provided with the
antenna. Failure to do so could expose you to risk of injury or death and
could severely damage the scanner.

Using the Radio Controlled Clock
Your scanner’s Clock displays all the time. When you turn off the radio
functions, it also displays the current seconds and date. It can also be
used as a standard alarm clock. Even though your scanner can set its
time automatically from the nationwide NIST broadcast, since this signal
is usually weak and can often only be received reliably at night in many
areas, we recommend you manually set the time to get started.
Setting the Current Time and Date
Follow the steps to set the current time and date:
1. Move the slide switch to Clock Set.
The hour digits flash.
2. Press L or M to change the hour by one
hour or press the number keys to select
the present hour. Then press E/PGM.
The minutes digits flash.
3. Press L or M to change the minute setting by one minute or press the
appropriate number keys to enter the minutes. Press E/PGM. Seconds
reset to 00, the AM/PMicon flashes.
4. Press L or M to move from AM to PM and back. Press E/PGM.
The current year flashes.
5. Press L or M, or press the appropriate number keys to select the
correct year. Press E/PGM, the current month flashes.
6. Press L or M, or press the appropriate number keys to select the
correct month. Press E/PGM, the current day flashes.
7. Press L or M, or press the appropriate number keys to select the
correct day. Press E/PGM.
To exit the clock setting mode, move the slide switch to Clock.
Setting the Radio Controlled Clock Options
The radio controlled clock attempts to receive the time at the top of every
hour (e.g. 12:00, 1:00, 2:00 and so on) until it receives the time. While it
is checking for the time, the dish icon (
) flashes and the signal
strength indicator appears to show the condition of the received NIST
signal. When it has successfully received the time, the dish icon (
)
will appear in the display. The dish remains steady for 24 hours from the
last successful signal reception. Even with a good signal, it will take 2-5
minutes to set the time from the NIST signal.

The NIST signal is very weak, so might not from all parts of your house or
at all times of day. Typically, reception is best at night and near a window.
The time reception antenna is integrated into your scanner, and is not
part of the AM or scanner antenna.
Notes:
• The antenna receives most strongly when the scanner keeps its left
side facing to the source of waves, Fort Collins in Colorado.
•
Computers and some light dimmers can generate signals that can
interfere with the NIST signal. If this occurs, reposition the scanner away
from these devices, or turn them off to remove the interfering signal.
•
If the scanner is inside of a building that has a lot of metal, the time-
setting signal will be blocked. Try positioning the scanner near a window.

Using All-Hazards
Your BC370CRS’s All-Hazards function makes it one of the most powerful
weather radio receivers built. It will activate on local broadcast of the
standard EAS signal on NOAA (weather) channels, AM, FM, or TV
Broadcast channels. Your scanner automatically monitors for an EAS
alert on the last-tuned channel whenever you turn off the scanner.
To ensure that you are alerted, be sure to set the MODE switch to
Weather (if you receive alerts on standard NOAA channels), or to AM/FM
and tune to the appropriate broadcast channel in your area.
Limiting Alerts to Your County
Alerts include a special digital signal called S.A.M.E. (specific area
message encoding) that identifies the area impacted by an alert. This lets
you set the scanner to ignore alerts that are not for your county,
preventing many false alerts for storms that are in surrounding counties.
You can store up to 4 county codes in your scanner and select one or
more of them to receive alerts for.
Programming County Codes
Your scanner uses FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards)
codes to identify counties. You can find the FIPS code for your area by
going to:
and looking up your county’s 6-digit code. Once you have the codes for
the counties you are interested in, follow these steps to program them
into the scanner.
1. Slide the MODE switch to Weather.
2. Press and hold the soft key for the FIPS position you want to program.
After about 2 seconds, the display changes to show the current setting.
3. Use the keypad to enter the code for that position, then press E/PGM.
4. Tap the other FIPS keys and use the keypad to enter the codes you
want to associate with each key.
5. When you have programmed all FIPS codes, press the RTN soft key to
return to normal weather mode.

Selecting Areas for Alerts
To limit alerts to specific areas, in weather mode press the soft key for the
area you want to turn on or off. Activated areas are reverse-printed in the
display. Or, to receive alerts for all areas, press the ALL soft key to
reverse-highlight that option.
Note:
If you don’t select an area, the scanner will never sound an alert.
Receiving Alerts
The scanner receives alerts even if it is in standby mode (power off).
Select the appropriate weather, AM, FM, or TV broadcast channel. Then,
power-off the scanner. The bottom line of the display will indicate the
frequency the scanner is monitoring for alerts. If an alert is received, the
scanner sounds an alert tone, then you hear the audio for the alert. The
alert message summary is also displayed across the bottom of the
display.
During an alert, the terminals on the back of the scanner provide a switch
closure to activate external sounders or strobes (optional). These can be
easily controlled using an X10 PRO PowerFlash Interface (Model PSC01-
Input Mode A). See the interface’s instructions for installation of such
devices.

Using the Scanner Memories
Your scanner has 300 memories you can
store frequencies into for scanning.
The memories are arranged in 10 banks of
30 memories each. While scanning, you can
quickly select which bank to scan by
pressing the number button that corresponds
to the bank you want to turn on or off for
scanning. To select the scanner mode, slide
the MODE switch to Scanner.
Programming Memories
You will first need to determine the frequencies you want to program.
This varies widely depending on what you want to listen to and your
geographic area. There are many frequency reference sources available
on the internet that can get you started. One such source,
http://www.radioreference.com, has a diverse listing of many conventional
frequencies. You might also search for regional hobbyist sites that cover
your area or check the database at the FCC’s General Menu
Make a list of the frequencies you want to program, then organize them in
up to 10 groups of 10 or fewer and fill out the table below. It always helps
to plan and organize what you want to do before you start, so don’t skip
this important step. (The numbers in the left-hand columns below
correspond to your scanner’s memory numbers.)
