Monitoring the Home Channel
This radio is equipped with a dual receive function (also known as dual watch (DW))
which checks for a signal on the home channel approximately every three seconds
while monitoring or scanning. If a signal is detected, the home channel is received for
five seconds, and then monitoring or scanning with dual receive is resumed.
Example: When checking the home channel while receiving “145.500 MHz”
