Scanning Function; Vfo Scan; Memory Channel Scanning - Yaesu FT3DR Operating Manual

The FT3DR supports the following four scanning functions:
• VFO Scan
• Memory Channel Scan
• Programmable Memory Scan (PMS)
• Memory Bank Scan
For additional details on the Programmable Memory Scan (PMS) and Memory Bank Scan,
refer to the Advanced Manual which may be downloaded from the Yaesu website.

VFO Scan

VFO scan function scans the frequencies, and detects signals.
1. Pres the [V/M] key to enter the VFO mode.
2. Touch [F MW], and then touch [SCAN].
• Scanning starts toward higher frequencies.
• If the DIAL knob is rotated while scanning is in prog-
ress, the scanning will continue up or down in fre-
quency according to the direction of the DIAL Knob
rotation.
• If the scanner halts on an incoming signal, the back
light will turn ON and the decimal point between the
"MHz" and "kHz" digits of the frequency display will
blink. Scanning will resume in about five seconds.
3. Press the PTT switch or touch [STOP] to cancel the
scanning.
If the scan has paused on a signal, rotating the DIAL knob will cause scanning to resume
instantly.
When turning the transceiver OFF while scanning, turning the transceiver ON, will cause
scanning to resume.

Memory Channel Scanning

The receiver may be set to scan memory channels:
1. Recall a memory channel to begin memory scanning.
2. Touch [F MW], and then touch [SCAN].
• Scanning starts toward higher memory channel numbers.
• If the DIAL knob is rotated while scanning is in progress, the scanning will contin-
ue up or down in frequency according to the direction of the DIAL Knob rotation.
• If the scanner halts on an incoming signal, the back light will turn ON and the dec-
imal point between the "MHz" and "kHz" digits of the frequency display will blink.
Scanning will resume in about five seconds.
3. Press the PTT switch or touch [STOP] to cancel the scanning.
If the scan has paused on a signal, rotating the DIAL knob will cause scanning to resume next
memory channel.
