Scan by Frequency - Specific Range
This is an advanced function and should be studied closely. Also called Program
or Band scanning, it allows the SG-2000 to scan in a particular mode between two
frequencies. There are two steps to using band scanning with the SG-2000. First,
you will need to load channels into the scan brackets. This tells the radio the
range within which to scan. When you are done using the band scanning, you
will need to unload the scan brackets to allow the radio to resume normal
scanning operation.
Load Frequency Limits
Before following this sequence you will need to have the upper and lower
frequencies assigned to memories. This is explained in an earlier section. For the
purpose of this discussion, let's suppose that you have put 3900 KHz LSB into
Channel 22 and 4000 KHz into Channel 23.
1)
Press “PRGM.”
2)
Press “SCAN.”
3)
Press “CHAN.” Display will flash [ LC: - - - - ] (lower
channel).
4)
Enter the channel number of the lower frequency. In this
example, 22.
5)
Press “CHAN.” Display will flash [ UC : - - - - ] (upper
channel).
6)
Enter the channel number of the upper frequency. In this
example, 23.
7)
Press “PRGM” to exit programming and execute commands.
Begin Scanning
This is done by simply displaying frequency and scanning. If you start within
the frequency range bracketed, the radio will simply go low to high or high to
low, depending on whether you have pressed the “Up” or “Down” arrow.
If you begin scanning frequencies which are outside of the range, the radio will
only scan to the range. (e.g. If you start scanning down from 28.400 MHz, the
radio would scan down until it got to 3.9 MHz and would then scan only from
4.00 MHz to 3.900 MHz after it reached that range.)
