button and your radio will begin scanning
memory locations.
3. The Scan icon will continue to be displayed

seconds, your radio will automatically resume
scanning memory locations.
If you want to reduce the number
of memory locations being scanned,
you need to “un-program” all unwanted
locations by changing both the main
