 Channel selection

Several types of channel selecting methods are available. They 
may differ, according to your system set up.

To select a desired operating channel, do one of the following.
• Rotate [ROTARY SELECTOR].
• Push one of memory channel keys, [MR-CH 1] to [MR-CH 4].
•  Push one of these keys, [Prio A], [Prio B], [Prio A (Rewrite)] and  

[Prio B (Rewrite)].

AUTOMATIC SCAN TYPE:

Selecting a channel is not necessary for this type. When turning ON 
the power, the transceiver automatically starts scanning. Scanning 
stops when a call is received.

NOTE: If the Move to Priority A channel at Power ON function 
(p. 22) is turned ON, the transceiver does not start scanning at 
power ON.
