A scanning receiver is formed of a memory for storing reception frequencies corresponding to a plurality of reception channels; a receiving section for receiving radio waves to be tuned to the reception frequencies; a control device for controlling the memory and the receiving section so as to read out the reception frequencies corresponding to the reception channels successively in a predetermined order from the memory in predetermined order to thereby cause the receiving section to operate. The memory including a fixed storage portion in which parts of the reception frequencies are fixedly written and an additional storage portion in which parts of the reception frequencies are rewritably written, the additional storage portion including a select/non-select setting area in which select/non-select information is written, the select/non-select information indicating that when the reception frequencies corresponding to the reception channels are read out from the fixed and additional storage portions, the reading out of each of the reception frequencies is necessary or not.
