Scan Mode

You can save channels into memory and then use scan mode to monitor those channels. When the radio detects a signal on a
channel, it pauses on that channel as long as the signal is received; when the transmission stops, the radio will continue scanning.
In scan mode, you can get the following information from the display (some indicators will not always be displayed).
Using the radio in scan mode
• You cannot transmit while in scan mode.
• You must have two or more channels in memory to start a scan.
• To save a channel into memory, select the channel, then press and hold WX-MEM for two seconds. Memory will show on the

no longer show on the display.
