8.2 Scan Mode
Scan mode enables automatic searching for channels that are currently broadcasting.
Scan mode will search through available channels and stop when it finds a channel that is currently
broadcasting. If the broadcast stops or is lost for more than 5 seconds then the scan will resume.
Channels can be temporarily removed from an active scan, and the direction of scan can also be
changed. When the scan reaches the last channel in the band the scan cycle is repeated.
The following scans options are available:
• All Channels — All channels in the frequency band the radio is set to are scanned in sequence.
• All Ch 16 — All channels in the frequency band the radio is set to are scanned, after each
channel is scanned priority channel 16 is scanned.
• Saved Channels — Only channels saved to the radio’s memory are scanned in sequence.
• Saved Ch 16 — Only channels saved to the radio’s memory are scanned, after each
channel is scanned priority channel 16 is scanned.
Note:
If the weather alert function is activated, the weather alert channel is included in the scan.
