The VX-6R allows you to scan just the memory channels, the entire operating band, or a
portion of that band. It will halt on signals encountered, so you can talk to the station(s) on
that frequency, if you like.
Scanning operation is basically the same in each of the above modes. Before you begin,
take a moment to select the way in which you would like the scanner to resume scanning
after it halts on a signal.
Setting the Scan-Resume Technique
Three options for the Scan-Resume mode are available:
3 SEC/5 SEC/10 SEC: In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters, and
BUSY:
HOLD:
To set the Scan-Resume mode:
1. Press the [ F/W ] key, then press the [ 0 ( SET )] key to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 49: RESUME.
3. Press the [ 0 ( SET )] key momentarily to enable adjustment of this
Set Mode Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired scan-resume mode.
5. When you have made your selection, press the PTT key to save
the new setting and exit to normal operation.
The default condition for this Set Mode Item is "5 SEC."
46
will hold there for the selected resume time. If you do not take
action to disable the scanner within that time period, the scanner
will resume even if the stations are still active.
In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters. One
second after the carrier has dropped because the other station(s)
ceased transmission, the scanner will resume. In the case of con-
stant-carrier signals like Weather Station broadcasts, the scanner
will likely remain on this frequency indefinitely.
In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters. It will
not restart automatically; you must manually re-initiate scanning
if you wish to resume.
