Scanning the channels
A scanning “by soft” is possible using the Transceiver/Channels/Scanning submenu.
The software provides a signal level floor (S-Units) for busy channels and the scanner pauses
and resumes after a preset time delay. With some rigs, you may also use the Squelch to
control the scanning: the program resumes the scanning if the carrier drops (only if the
Monitoring is running).
This scanning is not related to the scanning of the transceiver; however, the program reads
the status of each channel : if the channel is to be skipped by the transceiver, the program
also skips this channel (It is also easy to change the status for scanning from the Channels
window clicking right on the channel and choosing the Skip submenu).
From the tool bar you start the scanning in descending, ascending order and stop it.
The slider sets up the time delay for the pause. The Stop check box stops the scanning on a
busy channel; then the scanning resumes when the signal level (or the squelch) drops down.
