MEMORY SKIP SCANNING

When you have some continuously-active channels in memories, you may wish to skip them for scanning, but still have them available for manual selection.

To mask a memory to be skipped during scanning, use the following procedure:

1.Set the radio to Memory Recall mode by pressing the [D/MR(MW)] key repeatedly, as necessary, until “MR” and a channel number appear on the right side of the display.

2.Rotate the DIAL knob to select the Memory Channel to be skipped during scanning.

3.Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to select “25 SKIP.”

4.Press the [MHz(SET)] key, then rotate the DIAL knob so as to select “SKIP”. The cur- rent Memory Channel will now be ignored during scanning. The “ONLY” selection is used for “Preferential Memory Scan,” described in the next section.

5.Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second to save the new setting and exit to normal operation.

A “SKIP” icon will appear when you recall the “skipped” memory channel manually.

To re-institute a channel into the scanning loop, select “OFF” in step 4 above, after first recalling the currently-blocked channel (the “Skipped” channel is accessible via manual channel selection methods using the DIAL knob in the Memory mode, whether or not it is locked out of the scanning loop).
