■ Setting tag channels

■ Starting a scan

For more efficient scanning, add desired channels as tag channels or clear tag channels for unwanted channels. Chan- nels set as non-tag channels will be skipped during scanning. Tag channels can be assigned to each channel group (U.S.A., International, Canada) independently.

qWhile pushing [HI/LO], push [CH/WX•DW•U/I/C] one or more times to select the desired channel group, if desired.

wSelect the desired channel to set as a tag channel.

ePush [SCAN•TAG] for 1 sec. to set the displayed channel as a tag channel.

• “TAG” appears in the function display.

rTo cancel the tag channel setting, repeat e.

• “TAG” disappears.

•Clearing all tag channels in the selected channel group

➥While pushing [HI/LO], push [SCAN•TAG] for 3 sec. to clear all tag channels in the channel group.

Set scan type (priority or normal scan) and scan resume timer in advance using set mode. (p. 31)

qSet tag channels as described at left.

wMake sure the squelch is closed to start a scan.

eWhile pushing [HI/LO], push [CH/WX•DW•U/I/C] one or more times to select the desired channel group, if desired.

rPush [SCAN] to start priority or normal scan.

•“Pri scan 16” or “Normal scan” appears in the function display.

•When a signal is detected, scan pauses until the signal disap- pears or resumes after pausing 5 sec. according to set mode set- ting. (Channel 16 is still monitored during priority scan.)

•Rotate the channel selector to check the scanning tag channels, to change the scanning direction or resume the scan manually.

•“16” ﬂashes and a beep tone sounds when a signal is received on channel 16 during priority scan.

•Push [SCAN•TAG] for 1 sec. to set the paused channel as a tag channel.

tTo stop the scan, push [SCAN].
