Frequency Skip Function - Icom IC-Q7A Instruction Manual

Frequency skip function

D Programming a skip frequency
Unwanted frequencies can be skipped and programmed as
skip channels when full scan, band scan or programmed scan
is pausing.
q Turn ON the frequency skip func-
tion as described at right.
w Start full scan, band scan or pro-
grammed scan. (p. 16)
e While receiving an unwanted sig-
nal and scan pauses, push
[FUNC] + [V/M] for 2 sec. to pro-
gram the received frequency as a
skip frequency.
• The transceiver emits 3 beeps and
the scan resumes.
• Non-programmed memory channels (blank channels) are used
for skip frequency programming in reverse sequence.
• Do not release [V/M] before 2 sec., otherwise, scan stops and
the transceiver enters memory programming condition.
• To scan the skip frequency after programming, cancel the skip
information (p. 18) or clear the memory channel (p. 14).
When the frequency skip function is turned OFF ("P SKIP"
does not flash), the paused frequency overwrites the pre-
viously selected memory channel.
D Frequency skip function ON/OFF
The frequency skip function can be turned OFF in expanded
set mode. In this case, the frequencies will not be skipped
even if skip information is programmed and "P SKIP" will not
blink during full scan, band scan or programmed scan.
