SCANNING

The scan function allows the GX750 to scan a series of user selected channels looking for 
activity. Scanning is done in an ascending sequence at a rate of 10 channels per second.

Channels can be selected and stored for scanning from any of the available channels.

e.g. Scanning channels 1, 2, 3 & 4

NOTE: 

The transmitter is disabled while scanning. If the 

PTT

 is pressed, a low beep will be 

heard and the 

PTT

 is ignored.

To add or remove scan channels

Channels that are stored in the scan memory will display ‘M’ to the upper right of the channel 
number. To add or remove channels from the scan memory, first select the required channel by 
rotating the channel control. 

    If ‘M’ is NOT displayed, press and hold the 

SCN

 key to add the channel to the scan memory. 

The channel number will flash, the radio will give a high beep and ‘M’ will appear.

memory. The channel number will flash, the radio will give a low beep and ‘M’ will 
disappear.
