Changing Un-mute condition
This determines what condition allows the radio to un-mute in VFO or MEM Scan
mode. The radio may have a RX Signal programmed; yet you may want to use
the radio to scan for carrier as you drive into different areas. Having this condition
set to un-mute on carrier will allow for defeating the RX Signal option as you look
for working stations.
1. Make sure the radio is in VFO mode. Press the ‘B’ button on the
control head to access the personality menu. A good beep is emitted.
2. Rotate the SELECT knob until “SCAN UNMUTE” is displayed on the top
line and the current setting is displayed on the bottom line.
3. Press the SELECT button to be able to change the setting.
4. Rotate the SELECT knob to CARRIER or VALID SIG DECODE. Once
achieved, press the SELECT knob to go back to the menu. A good
beep is emitted.
5. To exit the personality menu, press the ‘B’ button on the control head
and the radio will revert back to VFO mode. A good beep is emitted.

The Scan Speed determines the rate at which the radio scans VFO channels or
memory channels. A recommended value here is 125 ms.
1. Make sure the radio is in VFO mode. Press the ‘B’ button on the
control head to access the personality menu. A good beep is emitted.
2. Rotate the SELECT knob until “SCAN SPEED - ms” is displayed on the
top line and the current scan speed is displayed on the bottom line.
3. Press the SELECT button to be able to change the scan speed.
4. Rotate the SELECT knob to the desired scan speed. Once achieved,
press the SELECT knob to go back to the menu. A good beep is
emitted.
5. To exit the personality menu, press the ‘B’ button on the control head
and the radio will revert back to VFO mode. A good beep is emitted.
