SCAN OPERATION

■ Scan types

Scanning is an effi cient way to quickly locate signals over a
wide frequency range. The transceiver has a priority scan
and a normal scan.
In addition, the Auto Scan function is selectable for standby
convenience. This function can be simultaneously activated,
depending on the setting in the Set mode. (p. 18)
PRIORITY SCAN
CH 01
CH 88
CH 05
A priority scan sequentially searches through all TAG
channels while monitoring Channel 16. When a signal is
detected on Channel 16, the scan pauses until the signal
disappears; when a signal is detected on a channel other
than Channel 16, the scan switches to Dualwatch, until
the signal disappears.

(Except Holland version)
Set the TAG channels (scanned channels) before scanning.
Clear the TAG for unwanted channels which inconveniently
stop scanning, such as those for digital communications. (p. 15)
Choose the desired scan type from "Priority" or "Normal" in
the Set mode. (p. 18)
NORMAL SCAN
CH 88
A normal scan, like a priority scan, sequentially searches
through all TAG channels. However, unlike a priority scan,
Channel 16 is not checked unless Channel 16 is set as a
TAG channel.
