Repeatedly scans within the ∂F span area. The
scan starts from the center frequency.
L In ne scan (programmed or ∂F), the scan speed
decreases when the squelch opens, but the
transceiver keeps scanning. The scan tuning step
changes to 10 Hz when the squelch opens.

1. Set the center frequency.
2. Set the operating mode and tuning step.
