PRIORITY WATCH

I Priority watch types

Priority watch checks for signals on a memory or call chan-
nel every 5 sec. while operating on a VFO frequency. The
transceiver has 3 priority watch types to suit your needs. You
can transmit on the VFO frequency while the priority watch
operates.
The watch resumes according to the selected scan resume
condition. See p. 46 for details.
NOTE:
• Priority watch cannot be started from a scratch pad
memory.
• The DTMF memory encoder or optional pager/code
squelch are turned OFF when priority watch starts.
• If the optional pocket beep function is activated, the
transceiver automatically selects the tone squelch func-
tion when priority watch starts.
• When "SCt-EP" is selected for the scan resume condi-
tion, the priority watch pauses on a no-signal channel.
