2. Press PSE to begin searching from the current
frequency.
3. Press S or T to change the search direction.
or Press FrL/O softkey to add a found
frequency to the lockout list.
or Press the MODE softkey to change the receive
mode (AM, FM, NFM) from the default for the
current frequency range (au).
or Press STOR to create a new CONV object
using the found frequency.
or Use the keypad to enter a new frequency, and
press ENT to make that the TUNE frequency.
Notes:
• Using FUNC TUNE from any other mode will
load the last active frequency from the other
mode into TUNE . For example, pressing
FUNC TUNE while parked on a trunked radio
TGRP will load the control channel frequency
into the TUNE mode if the control channel
frequency is the last frequency that the
scanner checked while scanning.
• Dedicated TUNE mode will always check
for the presence of encoded squelch and
digital modulation each time it finds an active
frequency. If a valid encoded squelch code
is found, it will be shown on the display, and
stored automatically when you press STOR to
create a new CONV object.
• Dedicated TUNE mode also displays
information about trunking control channels
and trunked voice channels it finds while
tuning through the RF spectrum.
The following information is displayed for each
trunking mode:

qq = decoding quality of the control
channel data, SID = System ID, and
S = Site Number

HR = the home repeater number of the
tuned frequency, A-HH-GGG = the Area,

VC: lsTGID–nnnnn
lsTGID = the decoded talkgroup ID data
from the lowspeed data stream
Note that the analog lowspeed data
protocol does not provide error
correction, and some false “VC: lsTGID”
readings should be expected.
