2. Close Call RF Capture Technology - you can set the scanner so it detects and provides information about nearby radio transmissions.
3. Dynamically Allocated Channel Memory - your scanner’s memory is organized so that it more closely matches how radio systems actually work, making it easier to program and use your scanner and determine how much memory you have used and how much you have left.
4. Preprogrammed Races - your scanner is preprogrammed with NASCAR Nextel, Busch, Craftsman, Indy, ARCA, and Champ series races.
5.  Quick Race Programming – lets you quickly and easily enter information about a specific race.
6.  Quick Keys – You can set the scanner so you can select a race or systems and groups by pressing a single key. This makes it easy to listen to or quickly lock out those systems or groups you don’t want to scan.
7. Quick Car Select – You can set the scanner so you can select and listen to a car by pressing a single key.
8. Pager Screen – You can set the scanner so it ignores hits generated by common pager frequencies while using the Close Call or search features.
9.  Ten Service Searches - frequencies are preset in separate public safety, news, amateur radio, marine, railroad, air, CB radio, FRS/GMRS, racing, and special searches, to make it easy to find specific transmissions.
10. Lockout – You can lock out any system, group, frequency, or channel while scanning. If you lock out a system or group, any channels belonging to that system or group are also locked out. You can lock out up to 200 frequencies. The scanner skips locked-out frequencies while using the Close Call feature or while searching.
11. CTCSS and DCS Squelch Modes – prevent interference from stations not using the mode you select.
12. Dropout Delay – You can set whether the scanner pauses at the end of a transmission to wait for a reply. You can set the delay time for each system you scan, and while searching and using the Close Call feature.
13. Attenuator – You can set the scanner’s attenuator to reduce the input strength of strong signals by about 18 dB received by the scanner.
14. Repeater Reverse – You can set the scanner so it switches to the input frequency on a conventional repeater system.
15. Channel Alert – You can set the scanner so it alerts you when there is activity on any channel you specify.
16. Memory Check – Lets you see at a glance how much total memory is left.
17. Frequency Step – Lets you select a frequency step (5, 6.25, 7.5, 10, 12.5,15, 20, 25, 50 or 100 kHz) for manual mode and chain search mode. The scanner’s auto step feature lets you set the scanner so it automatically chooses the correct step.
18. Quick Recall – Lets you quickly select a specific channel by choosing the system, group, and channel.
19. Scan/Search Delay – You can set the scanner so it remains on a frequency up to 5 seconds after the last transmission to wait for a possible reply.
20. Text Tagging – You can name each race system, conventional system, group, channel, custom search range, and SAME group, using up to 16 characters per name.
21. Unique Data Skip – Allows your scanner to skip unwanted data transmissions and reduces birdies.
22. Duplicate Frequency Alert – Alerts you if you try to enter a duplicate name or frequency already stored in the scanner.
23. Memory Backup – If power is lost or disconnected, the scanner retains the frequencies you programmed in its memory.
24. 22 Bands – Includes 22 bands, with Aircraft and 800 MHz.
Note: The scanner’s frequency coverage is not continuous and does not include the cellular telephone band.
25. Weather Search – Lets your scanner receive your local NOAA weather transmission.
26. SAME Weather Alert – Lets your scanner alert you when a SAME weather alert is transmitted on a NOAA weather channel. The scanner also displays the transmitted alert type. This helps you quickly find out about severe weather in your area and lets you avoid false alarms.
27. Service Search – Lets you quickly select and search the scanner’s preprogrammed frequencies.
28. Custom Search – Lets you program up to 10 custom search ranges. You can search any of these ranges simultaneously.
29. CTCSS/DCS Search – Lets the scanner search for CTCSS or DCS tones. You can identify up to 50 CTCSS tones and 104 DCS tones.
30. Quick Search – Lets you search from the currently-tuned frequency if you are searching a conventional system.
31. Frequency AutoStore – Automatically stores all active frequencies within a system you select.
32. Priority Scan – Priority channels let you keep track of activity on your most important channel(s) while monitoring other channels for transmissions.
33. Priority Plus – You can set the scanner so it scans only the priority channels.
34. LCD Back Light – Makes the display easy to see in dim light. You can adjust the back light so it turns on when you press a key, when squelch breaks during a transmission, or manually.
35. Low Battery Alert – The scanner alerts you if the batteries need to be recharged or replaced.
36. Battery Save – You can set the scanner so it reduces the amount of power it needs if there are no transmissions.
37. Key Lock – You can deactivate the scanner’s keys to help prevent accidentally changing the scanner’s programming.
38. Key Beep – You can control whether the scanner beeps when you press a key.
39. PC Control – You can transfer programming data to and from your scanner and your personal computer, and control the scanner using a computer. This helps you find frequencies listed on the Internet and load them into the scanner.
40. Clone Mode – You can clone all programmed data, including the contents of the scanner’s memory, menu settings, and other parameters from one SC230 scanner to another SC230 scanner.
41. On-Air Cloning – You can clone all programmed data over the air from one SC230 scanner to another SC230 scanner using a personal computer and a radio transmitter.
