The Follow Me Scan feature checks a user-assigned pri-
ority channel in addition to the channels previously pre-
programmed into a radio’s scan list. For example, if only
Channels 1, 3, and 5 (of the 8 available channels) are
designated for “Scanning”, the user may assign Channel 2
as the “user-assigned” priority channel via the Follow Me
Scan.
To activate Follow Me Scan, first select the channel you
want to designate as the “user-assigned priority channel”
by positioning the CH Selector knob on the desired “pri-
ority” channel. Next, press, (or press and hold), the as-
signed PF key. Finally, rotate the CH Selector knob to the
desired “operating channel”.
The scanner will search the two channels (user-assigned
priority channel and operating channel) and pause when it
finds a transmission on either channel.
