[b]Reading the screen of the PRO-96[/b]

[JimVG]

Will someone please tell me how to read the screen of a pro-96 radio?
There is absolutely no mention of this subject in the owners manual.
I just purchased my scanner 3 days ago and trying to learn how to use it is driving me batty! (Please, no puns from the gallery).
Thank you,
JVG
