Set a "Skipped" Channel During Memory Scan Operation
Some continuous-carrier stations will seriously impede scanner operation and they may be "skipped" during scanning, if
you like.
1. Select the Memory mode by pressing the [V/M] key, if necessary.
2. Rotate the DIAL to select the Memory channel to be skipped.
3. Press and hold the [SCN] key for 1/2 second and the " " icon will appear on the display. The current Memory ch-
annel will now be ignored during scanning. The " " icon will also appear when you recall the "skipped" memory
channel manually.
4. To cancel the "skipped" feature, press and hold the [SCN] key for 1/2 second again to select "OFF".
Preferential Memory Scanning
Set up a "Preferential Scan List" of channels which you can "flag" within the memory system. These channels are design-
ated by a " " icon when you have selected them.
When you select Preferential Memory Scan mode and start scanning, only those channels bearing the " " icon will be
scanned.
How to set up and use the Preferential Scan List:
1. Select the Memory mode by pressing the [V/M] key, if necessary.
2. Rotate the DIAL to select the channel which you wish to add to the Preferential Scan List.
3. Press and hold the [SCN] key for 1/2 second, several times if necessary, so as to make the " " icon appear by the
channel designator.

Before you begin to scan, select the way in which you would like the scanner to resume scanning after it halts on a signal.
To set the scan-Resume mode:
1. Short press the [SET] key to enter Menu mode.

3. Short press the "Main" band DIAL knob, then rotate the "Main" band DIAL to select the desired scan-resume mode.
TIME: the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters, and will hold 5 seconds. If you do not take action to disable the sca-
nner within 5 seconds, the scanner will resume even if the stations are still alive.
BUSY: The scanner will halt on a signal it encounters. 2 seconds after the carrier has dropped as the other station(s) ce-
ased transmission, the scanner will resume.
4. Press the [SET] key to save the new setting and exit to normal operation.
Note: the default setting for scan-resume mode is "TIME".
VFO Scanning
1. Select the VFO mode by pressing [V/M] key, if necessary.
2. Press the [SCN] key to start scanning.
3. Rotate the "Main" band DIAL to change scanning frequency direction.

decimal point of the frequency display will blink during this "Pause" condition.
5. The scanner will then resume according to the Scan-Resume mode selected in previous step.
6. To cancel scanning, press the [SCN] key again.
