The AR5001D is equipped with VFO search, program search, and Cyber search.
VFO SEARCH = Search between two VFO frequencies
PROGRAM SEARCH = Search between user preprogrammed frequency limits

8-1-1 VFO SEARCH
The VFO search is the easiest way of searching without programming.
When the VFO-A is selected as a primary VFO, the AR5001D will s earch between two frequencies
on VFO-A and VFO-B with receive mode, frequency step set in the VFO-A.
When either the VFO-C, VFO-D, or VFO-E are selected, the AR5001 D will search between those
frequencies to the upper limit (3150 MHz) or the lower limit (40 kHz) frequency.
To activate the VFO sea rch, perform the following steps:
1. In VFO mode, press and hold either the [VFO] key, [UP] key, or [DOWN] key for two seconds. The
search process starts. The search direction can be changed by rotating the main dial or pressing
the [UP] key or [DOWN] key.
