Dual watch
The dual watch allows you to keep watch on channel 16 and an- other channel. CH16 and another channel are watched at intervals of 0.15 seconds and one second, respectively.
To start DW, press the SQUELCH control once. When the receiver finds a signal on channel 16, it locks on CH16 and restarts dual watching after the signal on CH16 has gone. If another channel has traffic, it still continues dual watch. The speech is heard inter- mittently. If you are annoyed with the intermittence, turn off DW by pressing the PTT switch on the handset or pressing the SQUELCH control.

To start scanning, press the SQUELCH control and SCAN is started. When the receiver finds a signal, scanning is stopped on that chan- nel and starts dual watch on it and channel 16.
