The Scanning feature is used to monitor multiple sig-
nals programmed into the transceiver. While scan-
ning, the transceiver will check each channel for the

signal is present.

nel, looking for active ones; it will pause each time
it finds a channel on which someone is speaking.

mable key again to disable scanning. Operation
will revert to the programmed revert channel.
