Selecting Scan Edges - Icom COMMUNICATIONS RECEIVER IC-R3 Instruction Manual

Selecting scan edges

The scanning range can be set to all frequencies (full scan), a
selected band (band scan) or between two user-programmed
frequencies (programmed scan).
The programmed scan edges can be programmed in the
same manner as programming regular memory channels.
Program the desired scan edge frequencies in a pair of
programmed scan edge channels in advance. (pgs. 14, 15)
q Select VFO mode with [V/M].
w Push and hold [↔], then rotate [DIAL] to select desired
scan edge.
• "ALL" for full scan, "BAND" for band scan or "PROG(RAM) 0" –
"PROG(RAM)24" for programmed scan.
e Release [↔] to start the programmed scan using the se-
lected edges.
When scanning across the band as follows (programmed
scan edges are set across the band), the parameters like
tuning step, receive mode, offset frequency, duplex direc-
tion, etc. are used in each bands' VFO settings instead of
these scan edges.
