Set Delay Time This setting determines how long the scanner waits after a transmission ends before resuming Quick Search and Close Call Search operations.
The default setting is 2 seconds.
Scroll to 'Set Delay Time' and press E/yes.
Scroll to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, (seconds) or Off then press E/yes to save and exit.
Set Modulation This setting controls the modulation type used for Quick Search and Close Call Search
operations.
Scroll to 'Set Modulation' and press E/yes.
Scroll to Auto, AM, FM, NFM, or WFM to choose the modulation then press E/yes to save and exit.
Set Attenuator This setting controls the attenuator for Quick Search and Close Call Search operations. Turn on this setting if you are near other strong signal
sources to attenuate about 18dB. Attenuation sometimes helps to reduce interference and desensitization that strong signals create. The default setting is Off.
Scroll to 'Set Attenuator' and press E/yes.
Scroll to On or Off then press E/yes to save and exit.
Set Data Skip This setting controls how the scanner behaves when it detects a data transmission during Quick Search and Close Call Search operations. The
default setting is Off.
Scroll to 'Set Data Skip' and press E/yes.
Scroll to On or Off then press E/yes to save and exit.
Note: If you are trying to test the Close Call feature with a nearby transmitter and you do not talk into the transmitter, the scanner will detect this as data
and will skip the frequency when Data Skip is on.
Set Step This setting selects the frequency step used for Quick Search. The default setting is Auto. See also
Auto Step Sizes.
Scroll to 'Set Step' and press E/yes.
Scroll to Auto, 5, 6.25, 7.5, 8.33, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, 25, 50, or 100 to set the step then press E/yes to save and exit.

features.
