11. Channel 16/9 Key
Each time the 16/9 key is briefly pressed,
the radio will change from Channel 16 to
Channel 9 and back to the starting chan-
nel (Fig. 10a, 10b). For example, if the
starting channel is Channel 61, pressing
the 16/9 key will change the channel from
61 to 16 to 9 and back to 61.
•
If the radio is scanning, it will change
to Channel 16 after the first press,
Channel 9 after the second press, and
will continue scanning after the third
press.
•
If the radio is in Dual Watch Mode, it
will switch to Channel 16, then
Channel 9, then return to Dual Watch
after the third press.
12. Dual Watch Mode
Dual Watch Mode allows you to monitor
a desired channel (e.g. Channel 61) as
well as Channel 16. To activate Dual
Watch Mode, first select the channel
you’d like to monitor using the
▲
or
▼
keys, and then press and hold WX/DW
key for two seconds. The
DW
indicator
will be displayed (Fig. 11a, 11b). Every
two seconds, the radio will check Channel
16 for traffic. If the radio detects traffic, it
will remain on Channel 16 for three sec-
onds after the last transmission (called the
Dual Watch Delay), then return to
Channel 61.
Dual Watch Mode also operates when
you’re listening to a weather channel.
Every two seconds, the radio will briefly
check Channel 16 for traffic, then return
to the Weather Channel (Fig. 11c).
