Hm SCAN
Scan is initiated by pressing the SCAN |key.
The transceiver will stop on a busy channel. When an in-
coming signal is detected during scanning, the BUSY in-
dicator will light. In order for this function to operate the
SQL control must be adjusted to the threshold point. Scan
direction can be selected by either the [4 | or the [¥ |
key before initiating scan.
The selected scan mode and scan stop mode indicators will
flash ON and OFF during scanning.
@ SCAN MODES
1. BAND SCAN MODE: Scans the entire band.
2. MEMORY SCAN MODE: Scans the memory channels
repeatedly, skipping the vacant channels.
3. PROGRAMMABLE BAND SCAN MODE: Scans between
the frequencies stored in memory channels 8 and 9.
If the frequency stored in memory channel 8 is the same
or greater than in memory 9, or if either or both channels
are vacant, scan will proceed over the entire band.
If SCAN is initiated while the displayed frequency is out-
side the range specified in memory channels 8 and 9,
