Other Scanning Features

• Look Back: Any channel, when not in the scan mode, can be
programmed to "look back" at the "Priority" channel. This
feature is ideal for those who do not need scan as defined above,
but want to make sure that they never miss a call on the "Priority"
channel if another channel has been selected. Once a "look back"
channel has been selected, the radio will periodically "look back"
at the "Priority" channel. If activity is detected on the "Priority"
channel, the radio will move to that channel for as long as it
remains active.
• Scan Channel Delete: To temporarily delete a channel from the
scan list, simply press the monitor button while scanning and
stopped on the channel to be deleted. This will remove that
channel from the scan list until the channel is changed or the
radio's power is reset. When power is restored or the scan list
channel position is again selected, the original Dealer pro-
grammed scan list will be activated.
• CTCSS/DCS Scanning: The SL-70W can be programmed by your
Dealer to scan for tone. This will help block out unwanted calls.
• Normal Scan TX: Allows a transmission only after a call is
received, depending on the programmed scan delay time. After
the scan resumes, and a transmission is made, the radio will sound
an alarm (two beeps) and will not allow a transmission.
• Priority Scan TX: Allows a transmission after a call is received
depending on programmed scan delay time. The transmission will
be made on the channel that the call was received. After the scan
resumes, if a transmission is made, the radio will transmit on the
programmed priority channel.
• Priority Only TX: Allows a transmission on the priority channel
when scanning and not stopped on an active channel. It can also
be programmed to always transmit on the priority channel if
scanning or stopped on an active channel.
• Receive Only Scan: This allows only reception. If a transmission
is made at any time, the radio will sound an alarm (two beeps) and
will not allow the transmission.
