■ Scan types
Except for the Dutch version, you can nd ongoing calls by
scanning the Favorite channels without rotating [CH/ENT].
The IC-M605 and IC-M605EURO have two scan types.
• Priority scan
• Normal scan
Before you start a scan:
• Set the channels you want to scan as Favorite channels.
(Scans only Favorite channels.) (p. 23)
• Set the scan type to “Normal" or “Priority.” (p. 86)
NORMAL SCAN
A Normal scan sequentially scans all Favorite channels.
However, the scan does not check Channel 16 unless it is
set as a Favorite channel.

The scan switches to Dualwatch, until the signal disappears.
