FT-60R OPERATING MANUAL38Preferential Memory Scan
The FT-60R also allows you to set up a “Preferential Scan List” of channels which you can
“flag” within the memory system. These channels are designated by a blinking “” icon
when you have selected them, one by one, for the Preferential Scan List.
When you initiate memory scanning, beginning on a channel with the blinking “” icon
appended, only those channels bearing the blinking “” icon will be scanned. If you ini-
tiate scanning on a channel which does not have the blinking “” icon appended, you will
scan all channels including those with the blinking “” icon appended.
Here is the procedure for setting up and using the Preferential Scan List:
1. Recall the Memory Channel which you wish to add to the Preferential Scan List.
2. Press the [F/W] key, then press the [0( )SET] key to enter the Set mode.
3. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 46: SKIP.
4. Press the [F/W] key momentarily to enable adjustment of this
Set Mode Item.
5. Rotate the DIAL knob so as to select “ONLY.”
6. When you have made your selection, press the PTT key to save
the settings and exit to normal operation.
7. To remove a channel from the Preferential Scan List, just repeat the above procedure,
rotating the DIAL knob to select “OFF” in step 5 above.
In the factory default configuration, you may recall Set Mode Item 46: SKIP by press-
ing [F/W] [8(P2)].

tion.
6. Now, press and hold in either the [(MHz)] or [(MHz)] key for one second to
