Common Letter Group Scan
This lets you select a common channel number This alternate mode scans all of the memory
among all letter groups for scanning

channels within any single letter group (10 chan-

"vertical" scanning, as shown in the table below.
ning, as illustrated below.
This can be selected from the Memory mode by
toggling the SCAN SEL button until an alpha nu-
meric indication appears in the memory chan- nel
window. The common channel number can be se-
lected from within any of the letter groups. For
example, if you want to scan channel 6 in all the
letter groups, selecting
85,
b5, TS, d5, or ES would
all result in the same scan pattern. Then, rotate the
MEM

knob to select a common channel
n~unber for scanning. Close the SQL control, the
press SCAN to begin.
Example: Scan channel
9
in all letter groups.

alphanumeric display appears in your memory
channel window similar to below, for example.

This alternate scanning pattern can be selected
by pressing

holding the SCAN SEL key while
powering on the radio. From the Memory Mode
toggle the SCAN SEL button (as before) until an
alphanumeric display appears in the memory
channel window. Then rotate the MEM

control to select the letter group you want to scan.
In this case, selecting any channel number
within
the Mter group you want will result in that group
being scanned. For example, selecting

Using Selectable Group Scanning
The key to obtaining the most from Group Scan-
ning is to arranging your
50 memory channels into
some logical order or pattern. This could be group-
ing them by location, mode, frequency band, or
