■Setting TAG channels
For more efficient scanning, add the desired channels as TAG channels or clear the TAG for unwanted channels. Channels that are not tagged will be skipped during scanning. TAG channels can be assigned to each channel group (INT, USA, ATIS or DSC) independently.
qWhile pushing and holding [H/L], push [DIAL•DUAL/GRP] to select the desired channel group (INT, USA, ATIS or DSC.)
wSelect the desired channel to be set as a TAG channel. e Push [SCAN•TAG] for 1 sec. to set the displayed channel
as a TAG channel.
•“TAG” appears in the display.
rTo cancel the TAG channel setting, repeat step e.
• “TAG” disappears.
✔Clearing (or setting) all tagged channels
While pushing and holding [H/L], push [SCAN•TAG] for 3 sec. (until a long beep changes to 2 short beeps) to clear all TAG channels setting in the channel group.
• Repeat above procedure to set all TAG channels.

•“NORMAL SCAN” appears at the channel comment indicator during Normal scan.
•When a signal is detected, scan pauses until the signal disap- pears or resumes after pausing 5 sec. according to Set mode setting. (Channel 16 is still monitored during Priority scan.)
•Rotate [CHANNEL] to check the scanning TAG channels, to change the scanning direction or resume the scan manually.
•A beep tone sounds and “16” blinks at the channel comment in- dicator when a signal is received on Channel 16 during Priority scan.
