9480 HF SSB transceiver 6-1
6. Using the receiver in scan mode
In the receiver scan mode your transceiver is able to listen on
selected channels for transmitted signals. Once a signal has
been detected, the transceiver holds that channel for a pre-
selected time before continuing with the scan. This is
determined at setup.
In normal operating conditions, a maximum of 15 channels
can be programmed to be scanned in sequence for audio
(voice) signals. A maximum of eight selective call channels
can also be included but must be programmed within the first
eight entries.
The scanning facilities can only be used with a suitable
antenna system. Mobile installations require a Codan
automatic tuning whip antenna.
It is assumed that before you use any of the procedures in
this section, you have turned on the transceiver unless
otherwise requested.
All displays in this section show examples of channel and
frequency numbers. You must insert your selected channel
and frequency numbers.
