Scanning Unlinked Banks; Scan Channel Pass (Lockout); Memory Pass While Scanning; Memory Pass Using Memory Recall - AOR AR8000 Operating Manual

when only the selected banks which contain data will be scanned.
* Refer to section 10-12 for further SCAN options which are available in
EXPERT status.
10-8 Scanning a memory bank which is not selected in BANK LINK
It is still possible to SCAN a single deselected bank by manually bypassing the
BANK LINK programming. To SCAN any deselected bank simply key the
desired identifying bank letter through the keypad.
If initially the bank selected is not linked and does not contain data, the sub
menu "SCAN SELECT" will appear. Select the desired bank identifying letter
(which does contain data) using the keypad and [.Aa] key as appropriate. The
receiver will scan only the selected single unlinked bank over and over and will
not attempt to scan the group of banks as specified in BANK LINK.

10-9 SCAN channel PASS (lockout)

Should the AR8000 stop on an active channel while scanning and for some
reason you do not wish to monitor it any longer, simply press the UP/DOWN
keys or rotate the [DIAL] to force the SCAN process to resume in the direction
selected.
However, should the receiver continually stop on the same channel you may
wish to PASS (lockout) the channel so that it will be skipped over when the
bank is next scanned.
Memory scan channels may be PASSED (locket out) either when the receiver
stops in scan mode (when they are active and the receiver has stopped
scanning) or by recalling them in memory recall mode.
10-10 Memory scan PASS while scanning
To PASS a channel when scanning, wait for the channel to become active then
press [PASS]. A lower case (small) letter "p" will be added to the left of the
frequency display on the second line and the scan process will move on to the
next channel. This process will happen so quickly that you will not see the "p"
for PASS being added. However, should the memory channel subsequently be
recalled, the "p" will be displayed to signify channel PASS.
10-11 Memory scan PASS & review using Memory Recall (M.RE) mode
Memory scan channels may be "tagged" for "PASS", un-tagged or reviewed
using memory recall mode.
Press [SCAN] to place the receiver into memory recall mode (M.R). The
legend "M.RE" appears on the top left of the LCD to confirm operation.
