SCAN OPERATION

Programmed scan

Programmed scan repeatedly scans between two user-pro-
grammed frequencies (memory channels "1A–3A" and "1b–3b") or
scans between upper and lower band edges. This scan is useful
for checking for signals within a specific frequency range such as
repeater output frequencies, etc.

selected scan edge appears as "P1", "P2", "P3" or "AL."
• To change scan edge, push [8•
times until desired scan edge is appeared.
• "AL" for full scan, "P1", "P2" and "P3" for programmed scan be-
tween the programmed scan edge channels as "1A"–"1b",
"2A"–"2b" and "3A"–"3b".
• To change the scan direction, push [Y] or [Z].
• When "dial" is assigned [VOL], rotate [VOL] to change the scan di-
rection. (p. 51)
e Push [D•
] to stop the scan.
CLR
NOTE: Scan edges, 1A–3A/1b–3b, must be programmed in ad-
vance. (Program them in the same manner as regular memory
channels. (p. 25))
If the same frequencies are programmed into the scan edges,
programmed scan will not proceed.

Memory (skip) scan

nels, except those set as skip channels.

In order to speed up the scan interval, you can set memory
channels you don't wish to scan as skip channels.
