VFO Scanning
1. Set the VFO to the frequency on which you would like to begin scanning.
2. Rotate the Main [SQL] knob so that the background noise is just silenced.
Advice:
Rotate the Sub [SQL] knob so that the background noise is just silenced, if you
would like to begin scanning on the Sub band (VFO-B).
3. Press and hold in the microphone’s [UP] or [DOWN] key for 1/2 second to start
scanning in the specified direction on the Main (VFO-A) band.
Advice:
If you would like to begin scanning on the Sub band (VFO-B), press the [B] button
first, then (within five seconds of pressing the [B] button: the imbedded LED will
blinks orange) press and hold in the microphone’s [UP] or [DOWN] key for 1/2
second.
4. If the scanner halts on an incoming signal, the decimal point between the “MHz”
and “kHz” digits of the frequency display will blink.
If the incoming signal disappears, scanning will resume in about five seconds.
On the SSB/CW and SSB-based Data modes, the scanner will pause on a
received signal, then will step across the signal very slowly, giving you time to
stop the scan, if you like. In these modes on the VFO, the scanner does not stop,
however.
1. To cancel the scanning, press the microphone’s [UP] or [DOWN] key momentarily.
Memory Scan
1. Set the transceiver up in the memory mode by pressing the [V/M] button, if
necessary.
2. Rotate the Main [SQL] knob so that the background noise is just silenced.
3. Press and hold in the microphone’s [UP] or [DOWN] key for 1/2 second to start
scanning in the specified direction.
If the scanner halts on an incoming signal, the decimal point between the
“MHz” and “kHz” digits of the frequency display will blink.
If the incoming signal disappears, scanning will resume in about five seconds.
1. To cancel the scanning, press the microphone’s [UP] or [DOWN] key momentarily.
Advice:
During Memory Group operation, only the channels within the current Memory
Group will be scanned.
