1) When you start scanning, the VR-160 will be changing frequency in the
upward direction. If you want to change direction of the scan while it is un-
derway, rotate the DIAL knob one click in the opposite direction (in this case,
one click counter-clockwise). You’ll see the scanner turn around and change frequency
downward!
2) You may change the scanner ’s
method of operation so the VFO fre-
quency will jump to the low band edge
of the
next
band when the VFO fre-
quency reaches the high edge of the
current
band (or vice versa). See page
86 regarding Set Mode Item 58: VFO
