Scan edges
Scanning automatically searches for signals and makes
it easier to locate new stations for contact or listening
purposes. The IC-7100 has several scan types; Pro-
grammed scan, Memory scan, Select Memory scan,
Mode Select scan and
∂
F (Delta Frequency) scan.
Rotating the Dial changes the scanning direction as the
default. The Dial functions during a scan can be set in
the Scan Set mode. (p. 12-5)

Repeatedly scans all programmed Memory chan-
nels.
This scan operates in the Memory mode.

Repeatedly scans between scan edges. P1 scans
between 1A and 1B, P2 scans between 2A and 2B,
and P3 scans between 3A and 3B frequencies.
This scan operates in the VFO mode.
SELECT MEMORY SCAN
(p. 12-12)
