SPECIAL FEATURES

DELAY

Many agencies use a two-way radio system that might
have a period of 2 or more seconds between a query
and a reply. To keep from missing a reply, you can pro-
gram a 2-second delay into any channel or frequency.
The scanner continues to monitor the frequency for 2
seconds after the transmission stops before resuming
scanning or searching.

To program a 2-second delay:

• If the scanner is scanning channel-storage banks

and stops on an active channel where you want to
store a delay, quickly press

DLY

before it continues

scanning again.

DLY

appears.

• If the desired channel is not

selected, manually select the
channel, then press

DLY

.

DLY

appears.

If the scanner is scanning service banks, press

DLY

while the scanner is scanning.

DLY

appears and

the scanner automatically adds a 2-second delay
to every transmission it stops on in that band.

To turn off the 2-second delay, press

DLY

while the scan-

ner is monitoring the channel or scanning the service
banks.

DLY

disappears from the display.
