Scanning Stored Channels
Press
SCAN/MAN

appears to continuously
scan through all channels with stored frequencies.
If the scanner finds an active frequency, it stops and
displays that channel and frequency number, then
it automatically begins scanning again when the
transmission on that frequency ends.
• Press
or
to reverse the scanning direction.
• To monitor a channel, press
SCAN/MAN

The scanner does not scan channels in banks that are
turned off.
To turn a channel-storage bank on or off, press the
bank’s number key (
1–0,
using
0

scanning. The channel-storage banks are on when they
have a bar underneath them and off when no bar appears
underneath them.
• You cannot turn off all banks; there must be at least one
active bank.
• You can manually select any channel in a bank, even if
the bank is turned off.
Setting Delay
To avoid missing a reply in conversations, a two-second
delay is automatically set for each channel. The scanner
stops for two seconds after a transmission ends before
it resumes scanning or searching.

display when the delay function is active.
To turn delay on:

channel, quickly press

the channel, then press
•/DELAY
.

DLY
appears and the scanner adds a two-second delay to
every transmission it stops on in that bank.
