◆
Scan type
The transceiver has 2 scan types: Normal scan and Priority scan. Normal scan searches
all TAG channels in the selected channel group. Priority scan searches all TAG channels
in sequence while monitoring Channel 16.
◆
Scan resume timer
The scan resume timer can be selected as a pause (OFF) or timer scan (ON). When OFF
is selected, the scan pauses until the signal disappears. When ON is selected, the scan
pauses 5 sec. and resumes even if a signal has been received on any other channel than
Channel 16.
◆
Weather alert
A NOAA broadcast station transmits a weather alert tone before important weather
information. When the weather alert function is turned ON, the transceiver detects the
alert, then the “WX ALT” indicator blinks until the transceiver is operated. The previously
selected (used) weather channel is checked any time while scanning.
·
“WX ALT” appears instead of “WX” indication when the function is set ON.
◆
Dual / Tri-watch
This item can be selected as Dualwatch or Tri-watch.
