4-5. SCAN
Each band can be scanned independently. For proper
scan operation the squelch must be adjusted to the
threshold point. Scan can not be used in conjunction
with the Tone Alert function.
4-5-1. Scan Options
The following scan options are available:
Band Scan
Scan proceeds over the entire band. This function
operates in the VFO mode only.
Programmable Band Scan
The scan range in this mode is specified in memory .
MHz Scan
Scans over a 1 MHz range.
Memory Scan
Scan proceeds through those memory channels in a
band or bank that have data stored and have not been
locked out. This function operates in the memory
mode only.
CALL / VFO Scan
Alternate scanning of the call channel and the VFO.
CALL / Memojy Scan
Alternate scanning of the call channel and the
memory channel that was last used.
V/M/C (VFO/Memory/Call) Scan
Scans the VFO, the memory channel last used, and
the call channel.
Auto Memory Scan
Scans the band scan range. A station that receives a
signal for longer than a second at the time is
memorized in an empty channel in bank 5.
4-5-2. Hold / Resume Programming
Two types of scan hold/resume have been provided in
this transceiver. The scan hold/resume can be set for
each band.
Time Operated Scan (TO)
In this mode the radio stops on a busy channel,
remains there approximately 5 seconds, and then
continues to scan even if the signal is still present.
Carrier Operated Scan (CO)
In this mode the radio will stop scanning on a busy
channel and remain there until the signal drops out.
The radio allows a 2 second delay before it resumes
scanning so that you don’t lose the station when
operators change.
NOTES
1. When the CTCSS is operating, scan will stop only
on a signal which contains the proper CTCSS tone.
2. With the DTSS is operation, scan will stop (with
squelch turned off) whenever it receives a signal.
Squelch will not open, however, until the proper
DTSS signal is received.
