Tone scan
By monitoring a signal on an HF/6 m repeater input
frequency, the transceiver can determine the tone fre-
quency required to access the repeater.
Set the frequency or memory channel to be checked q
for a tone frequency.
Push w the Mode key [AM/FM] several times to select
the FM mode.
Hold down [TONE]( e ) for 1 second.
• The Tone frequency screen is displayed.
Push [ r p](F) or [q](F) to check the repeater tone
frequency or tone squelch frequency.
Push [T-SCAN](F). t
• The Tone scan starts.
• “SCAN” blinks while scanning.
When the tone frequency is detected, the tone scan y
pauses.
• The tone frequency is set temporarily in the Tone mem-
ory. If desired, hold down [MW] for 1 second to overwrite
the memory to permanently store the tone frequency.
• The decoded tone frequency is used for the repeater
tone frequency or tone squelch frequency.
To stop the scan, push [T-SCAN](F). u
• Hold down [DEF](F) for 1 second to select the default
frequency.
Push [EXIT/SET]. i
• Exits the Tone frequency screen.
This function is useful when you don’t want unmodu-
lated signals pausing or cancelling a scan. When the
Voice Squelch Control function is activated, the scan
pauses while the receiver checks the received signals
for voice components. (The squelch does not open
during this check.)
If a received signal includes voice components, and
the tone of the voice components changes within 1
second, the scan is stopped and the squelch opens.
If the received signal has no voice components, or the
tone of the voice components does not change within
1 second, the scan resumes.
While in a phone mode (SSB, AM or FM), push
[VSC]() to turn the VSC (Voice Squelch Control)
function ON or OFF.
• “VSC” is displayed when the function is ON.
• The VSC function can be used in any scan.
• The VSC function resumes the scan on unmodu-
lated signals, regardless of whether the Scan Re-
sume function is set to ON or OFF.
