A: It is a terminology to imply that the scanner will be used at the hi end of frequency as opposed to low frequency
There are several different scanner frequencies for Floyd County in Kentucky. The 911 dispatcher frequency is 154.80000. Law enforcement is 154.81500, 155.31000 or 155.06250.
The frequency is likely a "birdie" on the second scanner -- meaning that the scanner circuitry produces a signal noise. This is common, and many scanner manuals provide a list of "birdie" frequencies.
155.640
The first digital police scanner was invented in the 1970's. Unlike earlier analog version (which were basically AM Radios, as police just used to broadcast using regular radio waves), this scanner was the first to allow you to punch in a frequency to search for the police frequency.

Use the number keys and to enter the frequency (including the decimal point) you want to store.3. Press E to store the frequency into the channel. Notes:• If you entered an invalid frequency in Step 2, Error appears and the scanner beeps three times. Enter a valid frequency.• The scanner automatically rounds the entered number to the nearest valid frequency. For example, if you enter 151.473 (MHz), your scanner accepts it as 151.475.• When you enter a frequency into a channel, the scanner automatically turns on the delay function and DLY appears. When delay is turned on, the scanner automatically pauses scanning2 seconds after the end of a transmission before scanning proceeds to the next channel. To turn the function off or on, press Func + Dly.• If you enter a frequency that has already been entered elsewhere, the scanner sounds an error tone and displays the channel that was duplicated. If you entered the frequency by mis- take, press then enter the correct frequency. To enter the frequency anyway, press E to accept.4. To program the next channel in sequence, press E then repeat Steps 2 and 3.
