REPEATER SEARCH SCAN
Scans all repeater channels (‘CB-R1’ to ‘CB-R8’)* in
sequence. If there are no busy channels after scanning
channels ‘CB-R1’ to ‘CB-R8,’* it begins scanning from
‘CB-R1’ again, then the transceiver transmits a signal to
search for a repeater while scanning.
* Excludes Emergency Repeater ‘CB-R5.’
