Repeater Scan
The Repeater Scan is used not only to search for a signal on the repeater channels, but
also to access a repeater by automatically transmitting in sequence. The Repeater Scan
detects repeaters that can be accessed in the area, even if the repeater is not used.
NOTE:
The Repeater Scan detects signals only on repeater channels 1 to 8 and 41 to
48. Therefore, you might not be able to access the repeater, even though the Repeater
Scan is stopped, because the scan will stop if any activity is detected. (The scan is
cancelled while receiving a signal, such as stations communicating in the Simplex
operation on a repeater output channel.)
