Full/band/programmed scan

Scanning searches for signals automatically and makes it easier to locate new stations for listening purposes, etc.

qSelect VFO mode with [V/M].

wMake sure the squelch is set to the threshold point.

Select automatic squelch (AUTO) or a level (1–9) where the noise is just muted. (p. 10)

ePush and hold [], then rotate [DIAL] to select desired scan edge.

“ALL” for full scan, “BAND” for band scan or “PROG(RAM) 0” – “PROG(RAM)24” for programmed scan. (see the next page)

SCAN OPERATION 6

rRelease [] to start the scan.

Decimal point(s) flashes while scanning.

“PSKIP” appears when the frequency skip function is turned ON. (p. 19)

“0P”–“24P” flash to indicate which pair of scan edges is being scanned.

To change the scanning direction, rotate [DIAL].

If the pocket beep function is activated, the receiver automati- cally selects the tone squelch function when a scan starts.

tTo stop the scan, push [] again.

SCAN OPERATION 6 If the same frequencies are programmed into a pair of Manual background scan edges, programmed scan does not start.

Manual background For programmed scan, scan edges must be programmed

Manual background in advance. Program scan edges in the same manner of

Manual background programming a memory channel (p. 14) and select a scan Manual background edge. (p. 21)

Manual background A tone scan function is available to search for subaudible

Manual background tones (e.g. when you want to find a subaudible tone fre-

Manual background quency necessary to open a repeater or to open the tone Manual background squelch). See p. 30 for details.
