VFO Scanning
This mode allows you to scan the entire current operating band.
1.
Select the VFO mode by pressing the [V/M(WRITE MT)] key, if necessary.
2.
Press the [MON/F] key, then press the [1(SCAN)] key to start scanning.
3.
If and when the scanner encounters a signal strong enough to open the squelch, the
scanner will halt temporarily; the decimal point of the frequency display will blink
during this “Pause” condition.
4.
The scanner will then resume according to the Scan Resume selected in the
previous section.
5.
To cancel scanning, press the PTT or [V/M(WRITE MT)] key.

: When you are start scanning, the VX-7R will be changing frequency in the
upward direction. If you want to change direction of the scan while it is underway,
rotate the DIAL one click in the opposite direction (in this case, one click counter-
clockwise). You’ll see the scanner turn around and change frequency downward!
You may change the scanning operation to which the VFO frequency will jump to the
low band edge of the
next band

when the VFO frequency reaches the high edge of the
current band (or vice versa). See page xx Menu Item (Misc Setup #10 VFO MODE).

Memory scanning is similarly easy to initiate:
$
Set the radio to the Memory mode by pressing the [V/M(WRITE MT)] key, if
necessary.
$
Press the [MON/F] key, then press the [1(SCAN)] key to initiate scanning.
$
As with VFO scanning, the scanner will halt on any signal encountered that is
strong enough to open the squelch; it will then resume scanning according to the
Scan-Resume mode set previously.
$
To cancel scanning, press the PTT or [V/M(WRITE MT)] key.
How to Skip (Omit) a Channel During Memory Scan Operation
As mentioned previously, some continuous-carrier stations like a Weather Broadcast
station will seriously impede scanner operation if you are using the “Carrier Drop”
Scan-Resume mode, as the incoming signal will not pause long enough for the
transceiver to resume scanning. Such channels may be “Skipped” during scanning, if
you like:
1.
Set the radio to the Memory Mode by pressing the [V/M(WRITE MT)] key, if
necessary.
