Memory; Available Modes - Yupiteru MVT-7100 Owner’s Guide Owner's Manual

Skip
The MVT-7100 has a feature called skip, which allows a paused scan or search to resume after a fixed
time. Normally, during a scan or search, if an active transmission is detected, the scanning or searching
operation will be paused until the transmission ceases. Once the transmission goes away, the scanning or
searching operation resumes. If you have the index feature enabled, scanning or searching will pause on
an active transmission for at most 5 seconds before resuming.
Step size
A value in Hertz (Hz) or kiloHertz (kHz) that indicates the amount by which a frequency will be changed due
to user or radio control while searching for active transmissions or using a VFO.
Available step sizes are :
Hz : 50/100
kHz : 1/5/6.25/9/10/12.5/20/25/50/100/125
NOTE: Only the MVT-7200 has the 125 kHz step size
S-meter
A feature used to graphically represent the strength of the signal being received. It is usually calibrated to a
dB (logarithmic) scale. A bar graph is used where more bars indicate a stronger signal.
VFO
A temporary location to store a frequency so that a memory channel does not have to be programmed.
Associated with this frequency are various settings such as receive mode, step size, attenuator, and delay.

Available Modes

Memory

The radio is in Memory mode when a memory channel number is visible in the upper left corner and
followed by the CH indicator. Pressing the MR key toggles between Memory and VFO modes.
Priority
Priority mode is enabled when the PRI indicator is visible. This is a mode independent of the VFO, Memory,
Scanning or Searching modes.
Scanning
In this mode, the scanning operation checks the specified banks for active transmissions on the
programmed frequencies within those banks. There are two scanning modes with three scanning sub-
modes for a total of six different types of scan that can be performed.
The two modes are :
Continuous: scanning of all non-empty banks
Bank: scanning of up to four banks
The three sub-modes are :
Normal:
Mode: scans only those channels with the specified receive mode
Program:
This gives us the following six scan mode types:
Continuous Normal
Continuous Mode
Continuous Program
Bank Normal

Bank Program
a normal scan
scans only those channels which have been program tagged
