remain on that Channel, otherwise it will return to the
priority Channel .
USING THE GROUP SCAN AS A SECOND
OPEN SCAN
There may be applications where you have no need for
the priority Channel and would prefer to have two Open
Scan modes with separate Channel groups in each . This
would allow you to scan either Channel group without the
interruption caused by monitoring a priority Channel .
Your TX4400 can be Dealer programmed to convert the
Group Scan function into a second Open Scan mode . If
you would prefer this feature over the present Group Scan
option you should contact your GME Dealer to arrange for
this feature to be enabled .
When the second Open Scan mode is enabled, the original
PAG E 8
Open Scan mode becomes Scan 1 while the new additional
Open Scan mode becomes Scan 2 . To select the required
scan mode briefly press the OS/GS key . S1 is displayed for
Scan 1 and S2 for Scan 2 .
The two Open Scan modes are identical in operation . To
program and operate each Open Scan mode refer to the
section earlier on Open Scan
Open Scan 1
Note: Enabling or disabling the second Open Scan mode is
not a user selectable option . Once enabled by your Dealer,
the additional Open Scan mode becomes a permanent part
of the TX4400's features and replaces the standard Group
Scan function . If you find later that you need the Group
Scan function re-enabled, you will need to return your
TX4400 to your Dealer .

PROGRAMMING RECEIVE-ONLY CHANNELS

Your TX4400 has provision for an extra 20 Receive-Only
Channels, in addition to the standard 40 UHF CB Channels
provided . These extra Channels can be user programmed
into Channel positions 41 through 60, within the frequency
range of 465 to 485 MHz . Frequencies are selected in 25
kHz steps . Note that the standard CB Channels 1 through
40 are fixed and cannot be altered .
ACTIVATING THE 'PROGRAMMING'
MODE
Your TX4400 is supplied from the factory with the Receive-
Only Channels deactivated . You can activate and program
them yourself as follows:
1 . Turn the radio OFF.
2 . P ress and hold the Channel selector while turning the
radio ON .
3 . R elease the Channel selector . The radio is now in
'Programming' Mode .
Rotate the Channel selector clockwise past Channel 40 .
You will now find that you can select additional Channel
numbers 41 through 60 . Initially, these Channels will have
no frequencies installed in them and are in effect, turned
OFF. Each individual Channel will need to be turned ON
and programmed with the receive frequency of your choice .
