SCAN
TALKBACK
The Talkback feature allows you to respond to a transmission while scanning. If a transmission on a channel is detected while scanning, the radio will stop on that channel for a preprogrammed period of time. During this “hangtime” you may respond by pressing the PTT.
Note: If transmission stops/ceases or if the PTT is not pressed for a preprogrammed duration, the radio will continue scanning. Also, the LED scan indicator stops blinking while the radio is in hangtime.
DELETING A NUISANCE CHANNEL
If a channel continually generates unwanted calls or noise (a “nuisance” channel), use the Scan button to temporarily delete the channel from the scan list.
Note: You cannot delete a priority channel (see page 28) or the last remaining channel in a scan list.
1While the radio is on the nuisance channel, hold down the Scan button until you hear a tone.
2Release the Scan button. The nuisance channel is deleted.

Restoring a Channel to the Scan List
To restore a previously deleted channel to the scan list, restart the scan operation or turn your radio off and on again.
EDITING A SCAN LIST
A scan list is a group of up to 16 channels. Each channel can have a scan list assigned to it. The same channel can be included in several scan lists, and the same scan list can be assigned to several Channel Selector positions. For example:
| Position 2 | Position 14 | |
|
|
| |
C | 1 | 1 | |
h |
|
| |
a | 3 | 2 | |
n | |||
|
| ||
n | 5 | 3 | |
e | |||
|
| ||
l | 6 | 11 | |
s | |||
|
|

When you edit a scan list, you can either add, delete, or prioritize channels. The Ksymbol will appear on the display while you are in edit mode.
Note: Your radio cannot receive any calls while you are editing a scan list.
