n Scan types
Scanning searches for signals automatically and
makes it easier to locate new stations for contact or lis-
tening purposes. The IC-910H has several scan types;
programmed scan, memory scan and mode select
scan.
The scanning operation can be performed indepen-
dently for MAIN and SUB band. And to search a sub-
audible tone frequency for a repeater frequency, a tone
scan is also available.
