■Skip channel setting

Memory channels can be set to be skipped for memory skip scan. In addition, memory channels can be set to be skipped for both memory skip scan and frequency skip scan. These are useful to speedup the scan interval.

wRotate [DIAL] to select a memory channel to be pro- grammed as a skip channel.

eWhile pushing [FUNC], push [(V/M) SKIP] one or more

times to select a condition.

• No indication	: channel will not be skipped.
• “SKIP” or “ ” appears	: channel skipped during memory
	scan.

•“PSKIP” or “P ” appears : channel skipped during memory scan; frequency skipped during full, band and programmed scans.

This setting is effective when the frequency skip function (“PSKIP” or “P ”) is turned ON. See p. 24 for details.
