MEMORY SCAN (p. 45) Repeatedly scans memory
channels except those set as
skip channels. Used to search
through often-used memories
and for bypassing normally
busy channels such as re-
peater frequencies.
FULL/BAND SCAN (p. 43) Repeatedly scans all frequen-
cies over the entire band.
Used as the simplest scan
without any preliminary set-
tings necessary.

SCAN OPERATION
■ Scan types
Scanning searches for signals automatically and makes it
easier to locate new stations for contact or listening purposes.
There are 3 scan types and 4 resume conditions to suit your
operating needs.
A tone scan function is available to search for subaudible
tones (e.g. when you want to find a subaudible tone fre-
quency necessary to open a repeater). See p. 53 for de-
tails.
