Special Features

USING THE DELAY FUNCTION

Note: Delay is automatically set as the default for each
channel when you turn on the scanner.

Many conversations might have a pause of several sec-
onds between a query and a reply. To avoid missing a
reply, you can program a 2-second delay into any of
your scanner’s channels. Then, when the scanner stops
on the channel,

D

appears and the scanner continues to

monitor the channel for 2 seconds after the transmission
stops before it resumes scanning or searching.

To turn delay on or off, press

FUNC

then

DELAY
