channel for the presence of a signal, and will stop on a channel if a sig-
nal is present.
One key or switch may be assigned to the
Scan
function, as follows:
One of the

signed position.
The scanner will search the channels, looking for active ones;
it will pause each time it finds a channel on which someone is
speaking.
To stop scanning:
Press the assigned
Soft
key, or set the
Toggle
switch to a differ-
ent position.
Operation will revert to the channel to which the
