using.

[TONE] changes the selection as follows:

• Scan starts when a signal is received.

• To reverse the scan direction, turn the

Tuning control clockwise (upward scan) or

counterclockwise (downward scan). You can also press microphone

[UP]/ [DWN].

• To quit the scan, press

[F] (ESC).

• When a CTCSS frequency is identified, the identified frequency appears on the

display and blinks.

currently set CTCSS frequency.
