SCANNING FUNCTION
Use this function to automatically search for signals. 6 different scan types are available in the unit.
In parameter setting mode, choose Timer mode or Busy mode to determine the desired resuming
condition. If the CTCSS(TSQ) squelch or DCS squelch is set, the audio can be heard only when the
tone/code matches the incoming signal. Otherwise, scanning stops but no audio will be heard. The
direction of scan, upward or downward, can be changed during the scan by rotating the main dial or
pressing UP or DOWN keys in the desired direction.

ward) key for more than 1 second but less than

3. The scan starts. It stops at the frequency where
the incoming signal is detected, and resumes
the scan according to the resume setting.
4. Press any key (other than UP/DOWN keys) to
exit.
