SCANNING
The radio SCAN function has the ability to allow programmable channels to be
scanned for groups of users.
Channels can be scanned (40 channels per 5 seconds). When a signal is found,
scanning will stop at that channel to allow the signal to be heard, then resume
scanning when the channel is clear again.
Scan Groups
The Radio features three scan modes - Open Scan, Priority Scan and Instant Channel
Scan.
Open Scan
The Open Scan feature scans for activity on all CB channels. Once a channel is
located, scanning will pause then will allow the signal to be heard. As soon as
the channel is clear for 5 seconds, scanning will continue automatically.
