Stepping Through The Scan Banks - AOR AR1000 Manual

Stepping Through Banks

Stepping through the scan banks

While you can't step backwards through the scan banks with the MANUAL
button, there is a way to do this using the Down arrow button, or the Tuning
knob. This trick comes in handy in many situations, and if you arrange your scan
channels as described in the later section on optimizing scan channels, this
technique will help you access related groups of frequencies.
The way to perform this function is simple. All you need to do is be in Scan
mode and then either press the Down arrow, or turn the Tuning knob one click
in either direction. Either of these actions will stop the scanner from scanning
but keep it in Scan mode. By turning the Tuning knob, you can move forward or
backward within the available scan channels.
The difference between this kind of operation and using the MANUAL button is
that while in Scan mode, you will skip over all locked channels. In Manual mode,
you can step through channels that are locked.
