Scan types
A scan automatically searches for signals, and makes it easier
to locate new stations for contact or listening purposes.
■
Programmed scan
A programmed scan repeatedly scans between two user
programmed frequencies (memory channels “1A–3A” and
“1b–3b”), or scans between upper and lower band edges.
This scan is useful for checking for signals within a specific
frequency range, such as repeater output frequencies, etc.
q
Push
[VFO/MR/CALL] one or more times to select the
VFO mode.
w
Push
[FUNC](
M
), and then
[SCAN](5) to start a scan.
e
Push
[FUNC](
M
), and then
[SET](8) one or more times
to set the desired scan type to
“P1,” “P2,” “P3” or “AL.”
• “AL” for full scan,
“P1,” “P2” and “P3” for programmed scan be-
tween the programmed scan edge channels “1A”–“1b,” “2A”–
“2b” and “3A”–“3b.”
• To change the scan direction, push

To cancel the scan, push any key except

NOTE: Scan edge channels, 1A–3A/1b–3b, must first be
programmed. Program them in the same manner as regu-
lar memory channels. (p. 26)
If identical frequencies are programmed into the scan
edge channels, the programmed scan will not function.
PROGRAMMED SCAN (See the topic to the right)
The Programmed scan P1 scans between 1A and 1b, P2 scans be-
tween 2A and 2b, and P3 scans between 3A and 3b frequencies.
