If you wish to have the memory channel scanner sweep all memories (in all memory
banks):
(1) Press the [ F ] key momentarily, then press the [ ENT ( SET )] key.
(2) Rotate the DIAL knob to set the cursor to the "MR" menu option, then press the
[ ENT ( SET )] key.
(3) Confirm that the cursor is on the "MR BANK"
menu option, then press the [ • ( BEEP )] key to
change its setting to "All Mem."
(4) Rotate the DIAL knob to set the cursor to the
"END" menu option, then press the [ ENT ] key.
(5) Confirm that the cursor is on the "WRITE"
menu option, then press the [ ENT ] key to save the entry and exit.
(6) Press the [ SCAN ( M-S SCAN )] key to initiate memory channel scanning in an upward
direction on the all memories (in all memory banks).
If you set the "MR BANK" menu option to "In BANK" in step (3), it will return the memory
channel scanner to sweeping within the current memory bank only.
Memory Channel Skip
As mentioned previously, some continuous-carrier stations like a Broadcast station will
seriously impede scanner operation if you are using the "PAUSE" Scan-resume mode, as
the incoming signal will not pause long enough for the receiver to resume scanning. Such
channels may be "skipped" during scanning, if you like.
1. Recall the Memory Channel to be skipped during scanning.
2. Press the [ CLR ( PRI CLR )] key. The "SKIP" icon will appear in place of the "SEL"
icon (just to the left of the channel number on the display).
3. To cancel the memory channel skip programming for a particular channel, repeat the
above steps so that the "SEL" icon appears in place of the "SKIP" icon.
1. Press the [ V/M ( MW )] key to recall the VFO mode, if needed.
2. Press the [ SCAN ( M-S SCAN )] key to initiate scanning in an upward direction.
3. If the scanner encounters a signal strong enough to open the squelch, the scanner will
halt and pause on that frequency. Scanning will resume according to the protocol you
selected in the previous discussion.
4. To reverse the direction of the scan (i.e. toward a lower frequency, instead of a higher
frequency), turn the DIAL knob one click in the counter-clock direction or press the
[ ( )] key momentarily (while the VR-5000 is scanning). To revert to scanning to-
ward a higher frequency once more, rotate the DIAL knob one click clockwise (or press
the [ ( )] key momentarily).
5. Press the [ V/M ( MW )] key to disable the scanner.
