VGROUPÐ9). As you select the Memory Channel, ÒonÓ or ÒoFFÓ appears on the main frequency display. ÒonÓ signifies that the memory channel is active for the Program Scan and ÒoFFÓ signifies that the memory channel group is inactive for the Program Scan.
4To activate the Program Scan frequency range, select the desired VGROUP number by turning the MULTI control. Then, press [
] to select ÒonÓ for the VGROUP (channel). When a channel is activated for the Program Scan, ÒonÓ appears on the display.
Note: At least one of the valid Program Scan channels (from 90 to
99)must be programmed and selected to perform the Program Scan. If no VGROUP (memory channel 90 ~ 99) is selected for the Program Scan, the transceiver performs the VFO Scan {above}.
5Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] or [MTR/ CLR] to return to the current VFO mode.
6Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] to start the Program Scan.
¥To quickly move towards a desired frequency while scanning, turn the Tuning control or the MULTI control, or press Mic [UP]/ [DWN].
¥Turning the RIT/ XIT control clockwise decreases the scan speed and counterclockwise increases the speed, except while in FM mode. The current scan speed is shown on the display; P1 is the fastest speed and P9 is the slowest.
¥While in FM mode, Scan automatically stops on a frequency where a signal is present. The transceiver will either remain on that channel for a short time
7To stop Scan, press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] or [MTR/ CLR].
Note:
◆If you have turned the SQL control clockwise, far beyond the squelch threshold while in FM mode, Scan may fail to stop at a channel where a signal is present. If this happens, turn the SQL control slightly counterclockwise.
◆If you press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] before storing any frequency range for memory channels 90 to 99, the transceiver starts VFO scan.
◆When the current receive frequency is within one of the ranges that you selected with channel numbers, Scan starts with the current frequency. The operating mode stored in the memory channel is used.
◆The operating mode can be changed while scanning, but the memory channel is overwritten with the changed mode.
◆When the current Scan range is smaller than a single step of the MULTI control, turning the control clockwise causes Scan to jump to the start frequency, and counterclockwise to the end frequency.
◆Starting Program Scan switches OFF the RIT and XIT functions.
◆While in FM mode, the Program Scan monitors rounded off frequencies regardless of the Menu No. 05 setting.
PROGRAM SCAN PARTIALLY SLOWED
You can specify a maximum of 5 frequency points for each memory channel from 90 to 99 so that the Program Scan slows down the scanning speed. To specify the slow down frequency points, first program the start and end frequencies into a memory channel (90 ~ 99) {page 53}.
1Access Menu No. 08 to confirm that the function is ON (default is ON).
2You can further configure the slow down frequency width. Access Menu No. 09 to select the range from 100 Hz to 500 Hz (default is 300 Hz).
Note: If you select, for example, 500 Hz for Menu No. 09, the Program Scan slows down to a ±500 Hz width, centering the frequency you marked below.
3Press [A/B / M/V] (1 s) and turn the MULTI control to recall the memory channel (90 ~ 99) for which you want to specify the scan slow down frequencies.
4Press [
]/ [
] to confirm the start ([
]) or end ([
]) frequency.
5Turn the Tuning control to the center frequency point that you want the Program Scan to slow down. Press [QMI/ M.IN] to mark the slow down frequency point. The Ò
Ó icon appears.
6Repeat step 5 to specify the center slow down frequency points. You can specify a maximum of 5 frequency points for each channel.
7If you want to clear a slow down frequency point that you previously stored, select the frequency that you stored. Press [QMI/ M.IN] at this frequency spot where Ò
Ó appears.
¥A confirmation beep sounds and the transceiver Ò
Ó disappears.
¥If you want to clear all the slow down frequency points at once, perform the Channel \ Channel Transfer to overwrite the memory data to the same memory channel {page 52}. This operation removes all the frequency points that you stored.
8Press [A/B / M/V] to return to VFO mode.
9Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] to start the Program Scan with the slow down frequency point(s).
Note:
◆During the Program Scan, you can turn the RIT/ XIT control to adjust the scanning speed. Turn the control clockwise/ counter- clockwise to slow down/ speed up the scan. The Program Scan speed indicator appears on the main
◆You cannot change the Program Scan speed in FM mode.
◆You can specify the Program Scan slow down frequency point in FM mode but it does not function.
SCAN HOLD
This function stops Program Scan for approximately
5 seconds, then resumes Scan when you jump to the desired frequency by turning the Tuning control or the MULTI control, or by pressing Mic [UP]/ [DWN].
To use this function, access Menu No. 10, and select ÒonÓ. The default is OFF.
