PRIORITY WATCH

Priority watch types

Priority watch checks for signals on a frequency every 5 sec.
while operating on a VFO frequency or scanning. The trans-
ceiver has 3 priority watch types to suit your needs.
In addition, you can be alerted with beeps and a flashing "ë."
The watch resumes according to the selected scan resume
condition. See p. 18 for details.
If the pocket beep function is activated, the transceiver au-
tomatically selects the tone squelch function when priority
watch starts.
