This function stops Program Scan for approximately

5 seconds, then resumes Scan when you jump to the desired frequency by turning the Tuning control or the MULTI/CH control, or by pressing Mic [UP]/ [DWN].

To use this function, access Menu No. 21, and select “on”. The default is OFF.

0(025<6&$1

Memory Scan monitors all memory channels in which you have stored frequencies (All-channel Scan) or only a desired group of memory channels (Group Scan).

Scan automatically stops at a channel where a signal is present, regardless of the operating mode. The transceiver will either remain on that channel for a short time (Time-Operated mode) or until the signal drops out (Carrier-Operated mode). Use Menu No. 22 to select the mode. The default is “to” (Time- Operated).

6&$15(680(

The transceiver stops scanning at the frequency (or memory channel) where a signal is detected. It then continues scanning according to which resume mode you have selected. You can choose one of the following modes. The default is Time-Operated mode.

•Time-Operated mode (“to”)

The transceiver remains on a busy frequency (or memory channel) for approximately 6 seconds, then continues to scan, even if the signal is still present.

•Carrier-Operated mode (“co”)

The transceiver remains on the busy frequency (or memory channel) until the signal drops out. There is a 2 second delay between signal dropout and scan resumption.

$//&+$11(/6&$1

Use the following procedure to scan all the memory channels that contain frequency data in sequence, ignoring the Memory Group number.

1Select Time-Operated or Carrier-Operated mode via Menu No. 22.

2Press [M/V] to enter Memory Recall mode.

3Turn the SQL control to adjust the squelch threshold to mute the speaker.

4Press and hold [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to enter Scan Group Select mode.

•Turn the MULTI/CH control to select the Memory channel group.

•MGROUP–0 represents Memory channels 0 ~ 9, MGROUP–1 represents Memory channels 10 ~ 19 and so on up to MGROUP–9 which represents Memory channels 90 ~ 99 and MGROUP-P which represents Memory channels P0 ~ P9.

5As you select the Memory Groups using the MULTI/CH control, press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to select “oFF” for all Memory Groups.

6Press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to return to Memory Recall mode.

7Press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to start All-channel Scan.

•Scan starts from the current memory channel and ascends up through the channel numbers. (The scan direction cannot be changed.)

•To jump to a desired channel while scanning, turn the MULTI/CH control, or press Mic [UP]/ [DWN].

8To stop Scan, press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] or [CLR].

Note:

XIf you have turned the SQL control clockwise, far beyond the squelch threshold, Scan may fail to stop at a channel where a signal is present. If this happens, turn the SQL control slightly counterclockwise.

1Press [MENU], then press [Q-M.IN]/ [Q-MR]or turn the MULTI/CH control to select Menu No. 22.

2Press [M.IN]/ [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to select “to” (Time-Operated) or “co” (Carrier-Operated).

3Press [MENU] to exit Menu mode.

You can lock out the memory channels that you prefer not to monitor while scanning (refer to “Memory Channel Lockout”).

XStarting Memory Scan switches OFF the RIT and XIT functions.
