I Repeater Search Scan - Icom IC-41S Instruction Manual

I Repeater search scan

The repeater search scan is not only searching for a signal
on the repeater channels, but also access a repeater by
transmitting automatically in sequence.
Thus the repeater search scan function searches an available
repeater in the area even if the repeater is not in use.
The repeater search scan detects a signal on the repeater
output channels (CB-R1 to CB-R8)* only. Therefore,
repeater availability cannot be guaranteed even the
repeater scan is stopped, because the scan will stop if any
activity is detected. (The scan is cancelled when receiving
a signal, such as stations communicating in simplex oper-
ation on a repeater output channel.)
*Excludes Emergency Repeater 'CB-R5.'

'CB-R8'), and push and hold
start the repeater search scan.

ing a signal, and 3 low beeps sound when no signal receiving.
