DUAL WATCH OPERATION
The Dual Watch feature automatically checks for
activity on a “priority” channel
ø
while you are oper-
ating on another channel. During Dual Watch opera-
tion, the current channel and the Priority channel will
each be polled for a 500 ms interval, as the VXA-
210 looks for activity on each channel.

The “DW” icon will appear on the display.
r While receiving on the “current” channel (not
the Priority channel), you may push the PTT
switch at any time to transmit on that channel.
r When a signal is received on the Priority chan-
nel, operation immediately shifts to the Priority
channel, the “DW” icon will blink, and the dis-
play will become illuminated.
While receiving on the priority channel, if you
momentarily press the PTT switch, Dual Watch
will be disabled. You may then transmit on the
Priority Channel.

Memory Channel (when using the VFO mode) or
Memory Channel 1 (when using the Main Memory
or Book Memory modes).
