SCAN
Scan is a useful feature for hands-off monitoring of your
favorite frequencies. After becoming comfortable with
how to use all 4 types of scan, the monitoring flexibility
gained will increase your operating efficiency.
The 4 types of scan are as follows:
Scan Type
Purpose
Memory Scan
Quick Activity update of your favorite
frequencies.
VFO Scan
General update on band activity.
CallA/FO Scan
Monitor the Call channel plus any
VFO frequency.
Cali/Memory Scan
Monitor the Call channel plus your
favorite frequency.
If PF keys on a microphone being used for remote
control of your transceiver are assigned the UP/DOWN
functions, scan direction can be reversed using these PF
keys. Refer to page 50 for identification of the
microphone PF keys and further information.
Note:
►
If Page or Tone Alert is ON, Scan will not function.
►
For CTCSS operation, Scan stops and the squelch opens
only for signals that contain the same CTCSS tone that is
stored in your transceiver.
►
For DTSS operation, Scan stops for any signal received;
however, the squelch
opens
only for signals that contain
the same DTSS code that is stored in your transceiver.
►
When both CTCSS and DTSS are ON, Scan stops for
signals that contain the matching CTCSS tone. However,
the squelch opens only when the matching DTSS code is
received.
