The WS1040 is a handheld digital trunking scanner with Motorola P25 Phase I capabilities. This scanner features Object Oriented programming, which users have often regarded as easy to program and use. The Virtual Scanner mode allows for the storage of 21 various scanner configurations, providing a total storage capacity of over 38,000 scannable objects.
Similar to their lower-end brother models, the WS1040 offers a dedicated Skywarn button and Spectrum Sweeper, which quickly sweeps the scanner's frequency ranges for transmissions from nearby sources. Users can lock out found frequencies and continue searching in the same band.
The scanner offers Free-Form Memory Organization, which allocates memory dynamically and efficiently as it is needed. This differs from low-cost and older scanners that had memory organized in rigid and wasteful memory banks. The menu-driven programming with Context Sensitive Help provides each menu item with a few lines of help text to assist with programming and using the scanner.
The Scan List functionality allows users to arrange group and scan objects according to their preference. The Free-Form Memory Organization feature allocates memory dynamically and efficiently as needed, in contrast to low-cost and older scanners that had memory organized in rigid and wasteful memory banks.
The WS1040 also features Skywarn Storm Spotter Functionality, providing instant access to frequencies used by storm spotter networks. The Digital AGC (Automatic Gain Control) instantly compensates for low user audio levels, which are common on digital systems.
For installation troubleshooting, if Windows does not detect the cable when plugged in, users should try using any other USB port, if available. If the installation fails, they should remove the cable, reboot their computer, and perform the installation again.
Overall, the WS1040 offers a range of advanced features and functionality, making it a versatile and user-friendly handheld digital trunking scanner.
