If the scan has paused on a signal, pressing the microphone’s [UP] or [DOWN] key
will cause scanning to resume instantly.
If you press the microphone’s PTT switch during scanning, the scanner will halt at
once. Pressing the PTT switch during scanning will not cause transmission,
however.
You may select the manner in which the scanner resumes while it has paused on a
signal, using Menu item “038 GEnE SCN RSM.” During memory scanning, the
default “5Sec” setting will cause the scanner to resume scanning after five seconds;
you may change it, however, to resume only after the carrier has dropped out, if you
like See page xx.
Quick Point:
If you have no interest in scanning, and wish to prohibit the microphone’s
[UP]/[DOWN] keys from initiating scanning, you may disable scanning control from
the microphone using Menu item “037 GEnE MIC SCN” (set it to “Off”).
PMS
To limit scanning (and manual tuning) within a particular frequency range, you can
use the Programmable Memory Scanning (PMS) feature, which utilizes nine
special-purpose memory pairs (“P-1L/P-1U” through “P-9L/P-9U”). The PMS feature is
especially useful in helping you to observe any operating sub-band limits which apply
to your Amateur license class.
1. Store the Lower and Upper tuning/scanning limit frequencies into the memory
pair “P1L” and “P1U,” respectively, or any other “L/U” pair of memories in the
special PMS memory area. See page xx for details regarding memory storage.
2. Press the [V/M] button to enter the Memory mode.
3. Press the [M CH] buton momentarily.
When you press the [M CH] button, the Red LED imbedded within the switch
should light up, indicating that you are ready to choose a channel into which to
store the data.
Advice: If the Red LED imbedded in the [M CH] button does not light up, check to
be sure that the orange lamp to the right of the [SUB VFO-B] knob is not
illuminated. If it is, press the [A/B] button to make it go out, then press the [M CH]
button again.
4. Rotate the [SUB VFO-B] knob to select memory channel “P1L or “P1U.”
