VFO Scan
Tips
• When a signal is received during scanning, the
decimal point blinks.
• Rotate the DIAL clockwise to start scanning toward
higher frequencies.
• Rotate the DIAL counterclockwise to start scanning
toward lower frequencies.
• When a signal is received during scanning, a beep
sound is emitted. Then, scanning stops for 5 seconds
to monitor the frequency. When scanning stops, the
decimal point blinks and the LCD remains illuminated.
After receiving the signal for 5 seconds, scanning
resumes.
• To select the range for scanning, enter Set mode
by pressing and holding the
key for over one
second, then select
[SCAN]

Skipping Frequencies You Do Not Want to Scan (Skip Search Memory)
During VFO scan, scanning may stop at a frequency that you do not want to receive.
The unwanted frequency can be skipped by registering it to the “skip search memory
channels” in advance. Up to 99 frequencies can be saved onto the skip search memory
channels (memory channels 901 to 999).
