SCAN OPERATION

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.
IMPORTANT!:
A microphone should be on hook to start scanning.
The repeater search scan detects a signal on the repeater
output, CH 1 to 8, only. Therefore, repeater availability can-
not 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 operation on a repeater output
channel.)
