10.4.5 Precautions for roaming
1. Before any roaming mode is selected, please make sure the ‘Scan List’ is preset
in advance, otherwise the scan feature is unable to be activated.
2. When the roaming is activated, the radio will confirm the activation with ‘OK’
been shown on the display and the icon for scanning/roaming being initially
displayed in white color. It then starts to scan all repeater channels (TX/RX
channels with different TX- and RX-frequencies) only. It will not scan channels
with same TX/RX frequency. As long as the scanning does not hit any of the
repeaters listed in the roaming list, the screen will remain black.
3. When the roaming is activated, if there are no TX/RX channels with different
TX- and RX-frequencies (repeater channels) in the scan list, after scanning the
current selected scan list, it will exit the roaming function.
4. In roaming searching, if VFO A is indicated with ‘ ’ icon or ‘CTRL’ when [PTT]-
key is pressed, the radio will stop roaming and return back to preset Scan
reply/transmit Mode to initiate a call. It will continue to roam after the [PTT]-
key is released.
5. When roaming is on, the radio defaults to scan in the main VFO (VFO A). When
the main VFO (VFO A) is in roaming, channel selection is prohibited. However,
menu accessing and setting of main VFO (VFO A) can still be made by selecting
VFO A.
6. When the main VFO (VFO A) is in roaming, channel and VFO operation and
menu accessing and setting of VFO B still can be made by selecting VFO B.
