NOTE:

 

In Group Scan mode you can also treat the Priority 

Channel as a nuisance channel and remove it from the scan 
session, but if you do, you will no longer be monitoring the 
Priority Channel while scanning. However if you press the 

PTT

 

you will still be taken straight to the Priority Channel when 
required to converse on that channel. After your conversation 
has finished the scan will continue without the Priority 
Channel included. 

QUICK CHANNEL SELECT 

To quickly review or edit channels stored in the current scan 
memory, briefly press the 

 key then press the 

 or 

 keys to manually step through the stored scan channels. 

Only those channels that have been stored in the current 
scan group memory will be displayed. During this time ‘F’ will 
remain on the display to confirm you are still in ‘Quick Select’ 
mode. To exit this mode, press the 

 key again or wait  

10 seconds for the function to time out.

USING TWO GROUP SCAN OR TWO OPEN 

SCAN MODES

If you prefer, the TX3350 can be re-programmed to have two 
Group Scan modes or two Open Scan modes instead of one 
of each.

Your TX3350 can be retailer programmed to convert the 
Group Scan mode into a second Open Scan mode and vice 
versa. If you would prefer to have two Group Scan or two 
Open Scan modes, you should contact your GME retailer to 
arrange for this feature to be enabled (when using two Group 
Scan modes the Priority Channel will be the same channel for 
both scan groups).

When the second Open or Group Scan mode is enabled, the 
resulting two Scan modes become Scan 1 and Scan 2. 

To select the required Scan Mode

Press the 

 key followed by the 

 key. ‘Scan 1’ or 

‘Scan 2’ will be displayed to confirm your selection. When 
enabled, the two scan modes will be identical in operation.

NOTE:

 Enabling or disabling the second Open or Group Scan 

mode is not a user selectable option. Once enabled by your 
GME retailer, the changed Scan mode becomes a permanent 

part of the TX3350’s features and replaces the standard Scan 
selection. If you find later that you need the original Group or 
Open Scan function re-enabled, you will need to return your 
TX3350 to your retailer for re-programming.

SELECTIVE CALLING

Your TX3350 has a Selective Calling system known as SelCall 
that operates like a telephone. Your radio is pre-programmed 
with its unique SelCall Identification Number. If this number is 
called by another radio, your TX3350 will beep to alert you. If 
you do not want to hear any other activity while waiting on a 
channel, you can select the Quiet mode. Your radio will then 
remain quiet to all incoming signals until your SelCall number 
is called. 

Your TX3350 will allow you to store up to ten (10) most 
frequently called SelCall numbers, with each number being 
labelled for easy identification.

SELCALL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (IDENT)

Your radio is factory programmed with its own unique SelCall 
Identification Number (Ident). This number identifies your 
radio from others. Your radio’s own SelCall Ident will be 
displayed for a few seconds in the lower left of the channel 
display when you first turn your radio on. You will need to 
make this Ident known to others who may need to call you 
using SelCall.

NOTE:

 

Although your radio is factory-programmed with a 

unique SelCall Ident, you can change your Ident to another 
number if required (see SelCall Memories on next page).

SELCALL IDENT LABELS

When storing SelCall Idents, you can add labels to each one 
to make it easier to identify whose Ident you are recalling. In 
addition, if an incoming SelCall matches one of your stored 
Idents, the label can be displayed instead of the Ident. To 
add or display labels, your radio must be in the ALPHA mode. 
To switch between ALPHA mode and Numeric Mode, briefly 
press the 

 key followed by the 

 key. ‘ALPHA’ or 

‘NUMER’ will be displayed briefly to the lower left of the 
channel display to indicate the selected mode.
