Default Working Channel in Open Scan Mode

In the open scan mode, your default working channel is
the channel your radio switches to when you press the PTT
while scanning. to define your working channel simply select
the required channel before you press SCaN. e.g. to make
channel 24 your working channel, simply select channel 24
before pressing SCaN.

symbol will animate. During this time the channel numbers
will scroll rapidly as the channels are scanned.

and the command will be ignored.

Operating in the Open Scan Mode

If a busy channel is found, scanning will pause to allow the
signal to be heard and will remain there for as long as the
channel remains busy. once the channel has been clear for 5
seconds, scanning will resume automatically.

If you don’t wish to listen to a busy channel, briefly rotate
the Channel control (or press the  or

keys) while the

radio is paused on that channel. the busy channel will be
temporarily removed from the scan group to allow time
for the channel to become clear again and scanning will
continue. the skipped channel will be reinstated in the scan
sequence after 30 seconds (see auto Skip).

If you press the PTT while the radio is scanning, the scan will
pause and the radio will transmit on the working channel.
After the channel has remained been clear for 5 seconds
scanning will resume.

If your radio pauses on a busy channel and you wish
to talk on that channel, simply press the PTT during a
break in the conversation. If the busy channel was not
your working channel, it now becomes your new working
channel, replacing your previous working channel. once your
communication has finished and the channel has been clear
for 5 seconds, scanning will resume.

If you need to use your Priority channel (for an urgent call),
briefly press Pri. the scan will be cancelled and the radio will
jump straight to the Priority channel.
