Dual Receive Function

While receiving on the VFO or Memory Chanel, the transceiver checks for signals on the
HOME channel once every 5 seconds. When a signal is received on the HOME channel,
the priority scan pauses, allowing reception of the signal. When there is no signal on the
HOME channel for about 5 seconds, the transceiver will resume Priority Scan.
The transceiver monitors signals on the frequency registered to the
