7. Advanced Operations

Your transceiver offers different features for advanced operations.

SCANNING FUNCTION

Use this function to automatically search for signals. 6 different scan types are available in the unit.
In parameter setting mode, choose Timer mode or Busy mode to determine the desired resuming
condition. If the CTCSS(TSQ) squelch or DCS squelch is set, the audio can be heard only when the
tone/code matches the incoming signal. Otherwise, scanning stops but no audio will be heard. The
direction of scan, upward or downward, can be changed during the scan by rotating the main dial
or pressing UP or DOWN keys in the desired direction.

[VFO Scan]

Scans all VFO channels in regard to the preset tuning step.
1.
Enter VFO mode.
2.
Press UP (to go upward) or Down (to go down-
ward) key for more than 1 second but less than
2 seconds. (To SCAN press for more than
2 seconds and it will auto repeat.)
3.
The scan starts. It stops at the frequency where
the incoming signal is detected, and resumes
the scan according to the resume setting.
4.
Press any key (other than UP/DOWN keys) to
exit.

[Memory Scan]

Scans all memory channels unless Memory skip feature is
selected for a given memory.

DOWN keys for commands.

setting.
