Channel Scan Mode

During Channel Scan mode, the radio will rapidly switch from channel to channel through all the channels. Whenever any activity is detected, the radio will stop the scan for 10 seconds to allow you to listen briefly on that channel. The radio will then continue to scan unless you switch out of the Channel Scan mode. The radio will perform normal scanning operations from either Marine (VHF) mode or GMRS mode, but it will only scan in that band.

NOTE

The radio must be squelched for the Channel Scan mode to function. See page 40 for Squelch procedure.

2.A signal on any channel will stop the scan for 10 seconds to allow you to listen to the traffic on that location.

NOTE

After the channel scan stops to monitor a channel, as long as you do not press any buttons within 10 seconds, your radio will automatically resume scanning the Channel Scan channels.

3.Press the Channel Up/Down button to resume scanning the Channel Scan channels or to change the scan direction.

4.To EXIT Channel Scan mode, press the SCAN button again. The SCAN icon will disappear from the LCD and the radio will return to Marine or GMRS Standby mode.
