delay

Sometimes a user might pause before replying to a transmission. To avoid missing a reply on a specific channel, the scanner automatically programs a 2-second delay into any channel or frequency. You can monitor the channel frequency for an additional 2 seconds after the transmission stops before resuming scanning or searching.

Depending on the scanner operation, follow one of these steps to turn off or on a delay.

To turn off the 2-second delay, press

/CLR /DELAY while the scanner is monitoring a channel, scanning, or searching. DLY disappears.

To turn on the 2-second delay to a channel again, select the channel and press •/CLR /DELAY. DLYappears.

To turn on the 2-second delay to search again, press •/CLR /DELAY while the scanner is searching.

DLY appears and the scanner automatically adds a 2-second delay to every frequency it stops on in that band.

Signal Stalker I also has a delay feature. It’s delay time is 10 seconds.
