SCAN OPERATION (All except the HOL version)

Scan types

You can find ongoing calls by scanning the Favorite channels.
Before starting a scan, you need to:
• Set the desired channels you want to scan as Favorite
channels (Page 15). (Only Favorite channels are scanned.)
• Set the desired scan type to "Normal (default)" or "Priority"
in the Set mode (Page 18).
NORMAL SCAN
A normal scan sequentially searches through all Favorite
channels. However, Channel 16 is not checked unless it is
set as a Favorite channel.
