Programmed scan (and auto memory write scan) searches for signals within a specified frequency range, using the selected tuning step increments. The result is like an ‘automatic’ rotating of the main dial.

Preparation—setting the scan range:

Push and hold [PROG] to enter the ‘prog’ bank, then input the desired edge frequencies, mode and tuning steps. Refer to p. 27 for details.

Start/stop:

Set the [SQUELCH] control to the threshold point.

Push [PROG] to start the scan.

PROG” (and scan range number) appears in the bank name area.

Push [PROG] again to stop the scan.

Auto memory write scan operates in the same way as programmed scan. However, when a signal is received, the received frequency is automatically written into a memory channel in the auto write bank.

Preparation—written memories condition:

Push and hold [AUTO] to enter the written memory setting condition, then rotate the main dial to select the condition.

: Previously written memories in the ‘Auto’ bank are saved, then frequencies are written into the next available channels.

: Previously written mem- ories in the ‘Auto’ bank are cleared, then frequencies are written into channels, starting from channel 0.

Start/stop:

Set the [SQUELCH] control to the threshold point.

Push [AUTO] momentarily or for 1 sec. to start the scan.

CAUTION: Be sure the written memories condition is set as desired, otherwise previously written memories are cleared.
