Useful functions
•Program Scan
This is a type of VFO scan, but by setting the frequency range
of the VFO into PH and PL channels, it only scans between
those frequencies. With setting the PH and PL properly, up to
3 Program scan ranges will be available, which are L-PH, PL-
PH and PH-H.
1. Enter the VFO mode and set the PL and PH
frequency into the designated memory chan-
nels. Refer to Memory setting for the proper
sequence.
2. Return to VFO mode by pressing V/M key. Set
the VFO to the frequency within the range to
be program-scanned.
3. Press MHz key for more than 1 second to start
scanning. During this scan mode, a decimal
point flashes as shown.
4. Use main dial or UP/DOWN keys to change
the direction. Press any key (other than the UP/
DOWN keys) to exit.
•Tone Scan
This function automatically searches for the CTCSS tone an
incoming signal might carry. This feature is useful to search
the encoding tone of a repeater, or to communicate with a
station operating in TSQ (CTCSS squelch) mode.
1. Press TS/DCS key to enter CTCSS decode set-
ting mode.
2. Press UP/DOWN key for more than 1 second
but less than 2 seconds to start scanning. It scans
38 tones in order.
3. The decimal point on the tone frequency will
flash, and it stops when the matching tone is
detected.
4. The scan won’t resume until the operation is
repeated.
5. Press any key (other than UP/DOWN keys) to
exit.
