(Smart Search) Mode.”

] key again to enter the Smart Search mode.
4. Press and hold the [ BAND

Smart Search scanning.
5. As active channels are detected, you will observe the number of “loaded” channels
increasing in the regular memory channel window.
6. Depending on the mode you set for Smart Search operation
(“
SINGLE ” or “ CONTINUOUS ”), the Smart Search scan will even-
tually terminate, and the LCD will revert to Smart Search Memory
Channel “
C .”

Smart Search memories.

Smart Search is a great tool when visiting a city for the first time. You don’t
need to spend hours looking up repeater frequencies from a reference
guidebook…just ask your VR-160 where the action is!
