U-15 ( SCN-STP )
Function: Select the desired Scan-Resume mode.
Available Values: PAUS/ 5SEC/ StoP
Default: PAUS
This Menu Item allows you to select your favorite
method of scan-restart after the scanner has stopped
on an incoming signal (when the Squelch opens). The
choices are:
PAUS The scanner will hold until the signal
disappears, then will resume after a
delay set via Menu Item U-17.
5SEC The scanner will hold for a fixed length
of time, set via Menu Item U-16, then
resume whether or not the other sta-
tion is still transmitting.
StoP The scanner will stop when a signal is
received, and will not restart.
U-16 ( PAUSE-T )
Function: Set the delay time for scan resumption in
the “5SEC” scan condition described in Menu Item
U-15.
Available Values: 1 ~ 60 Seconds
Default: 5 Seconds
This Menu Item defines the length of time the scan-
ner will dwell on a frequency when in the “5 Second”
mode, so named after its default value. After the time
period set via this Menu Item, the scanner will re-
sume irrespective of the presence or absence of a
signal on the current frequency.
U-17 ( SCN-RES )
Function: Set the delay time for scan resumption in
the “PAUS” scan condition described in Menu Item
U-15.
Available Values: 0.0 ~ 10.0 Seconds
Default: 1.0 Second
You will generally want to set a fairly short value for
this Menu Item, so as not to delay the resumption of
scanning after a signal disappears.
U-18 ( DW-TIME )
Function: Set the polling interval for the Dual Watch
system
Available Values: 3 ~ 15 Seconds
Default: 10 Seconds
This Menu Item defines the amount of time the Dual
Watch system will dwell on VFO-A before checking
VFO-B for activity.
U-19 ( SCNSP-V )
Function: Set the amount of time per synthesizer
step in the VFO/PMS Scan modes
Available Values:

Use this Menu item to select the amount of time each
step of the synthesizer will be allocated during VFO
Scan or PMS operation.

Default: EL1
This menu Item allows selection of the preferred key-
ing action of your paddle. The choices available are:

bUG Mechanical “Bug” key emulation. The “dot”
paddle contact produces automatically-gen-
erated dots, while the “dash” contact pro-
duces dashes of a length produced manu-
ally.

when programming message memories.

tronic keyer
Available Values: 0 ~ 127 (0:1 ~ 12.7:1 Dot:Space
ratio)

Use this Menu item to set the Dot weighting for the
