When you have some continuously-active channels in memories, you may wish to
skip
them
for
scanning
, but still have them available for
manual selection
.
To mask a memory to be skipped during scanning, use the following procedure:
1. Set the radio to Memory Recall mode by pressing the [
D/MR
(
MW
)] key repeatedly, as
necessary, until “
MR
” and a channel number appear on the right side of the display.
2. Rotate the
DIAL
knob to select the Memory Channel to be skipped during scanning.
3. Press and hold in the [
MHz
(
SET
)] key for one second, then rotate the
DIAL
knob to
select “
25 SKIP
.”
4. Press the [
MHz
(
SET
)] key, then rotate the
DIAL
knob so as to select “
SKIP
”. The cur-
rent Memory Channel will now be ignored during scanning. The “
ONLY
” selection is
used for “Preferential Memory Scan,” described in the next section.
5. Press and hold in the [
MHz
(
SET
)] key for one second to save the new setting and exit to
normal operation.
A “
SKIP
” icon will appear when you recall the “skipped” memory channel manually.
To re-institute a channel into the scanning loop, select “
OFF
” in step 4 above, after first
recalling the currently-blocked channel (the “Skipped” channel is accessible via manual
channel selection methods using the
DIAL
knob in the Memory mode, whether or not it is
locked out of the scanning loop).
