Direct Keypad Frequency Entry
The desired operating frequency may be entered directly from the keypad.
To enter a frequency from the keypad, just press the numbered digits on the keypad in the
proper sequence. There is no “Decimal point” key on the
VX-6E
, so if the frequency is
below 100 MHz (e.g. 15.150 MHz), any required leading zeroes must be entered. How-
ever, there is a short-cut for frequencies ending in zero - press the [
V/M
(
DW
)
MT
] key
after the last non-zero digit.

Scanning
From the VFO mode, press and hold in the [
BAND
(
SCN
)
BND DN
] key for one second,
and rotate the
DIAL
knob
while holding in the
[
BAND
(
SCN
)
BND DN
]
key
, to select the bandwidth for
the VFO scanner, then release the [
BAND
(
SCN
)
BND DN
]
key to begin scanning toward a higher frequency. The scan-
ner will stop when it receives a signal strong enough to break
through the Squelch threshold. The
VX-6E
will then hold on
that frequency according to the setting of the “RESUME”
mode (Set Mode Item 48:
RESUME

RESUME
). See page 46 for details regarding Scan Operation.
If you wish to reverse the direction of the scan (i.e. toward a lower frequency, instead of a
higher frequency), just rotate the
DIAL
one click in the counter-clockwise direction while
the
VX-6E
is scanning. The scanning direction will be reversed. To revert to scanning
toward a higher frequency once more, rotate the
DIAL
one click clockwise.
Press the
PTT
switch momentarily to cancel the scanning. This only stops the scan; it does
not cause transmission to occur.
Notice
The
VX-6E
may receive very strong signals on the Image frequency. If you expe-
rience interference that you suspect may be coming in via an “Image” path, you may
calculate the possible frequencies using the formulas below. This information may
be used in the design of effective countermeasures such as traps, etc.
