PRIORITY SCAN
You may sometimes want to check your favorite
frequency activities while monitoring the A and
B-bands. In this case, use the Priority Scan function.
It checks the activities of Pr1 and Pr2 channels every
3 seconds, alternately, using the B-band receiver.
If the transceiver detects a signal on Pr1 or Pr2, it
recalls the frequency to the B-band receiver.

If you do not operate any control or key for 3 seconds after
the signal drops, the transceiver returns to the original frequency
and resumes Priority Scan.
