■ Scan types
A scan automatically searches for signals, and makes it
easier to locate new stations for contact or listening purposes.
■ Programmed scan
A programmed scan repeatedly scans between two user
programmed frequencies (memory channels “1A–3A” and
“1b–3b”), or scans between upper and lower band edges.
This scan is useful for checking for signals within a specific
frequency range, such as repeater output frequencies, etc.
q Push [VFO/MR/CALL] several times to select the VFO
mode.
w Push [FUNC](M), and then
[SCAN](5) to start a scan.
e Push [FUNC](M), and then
[SET](8) several times to se-
lect a desired scan type be-
tween “P1,” “P2,” “P3” or “AL.”
• “AL” for full scan, “P1,” “P2” and “P3” for programmed scan be-
tween the programmed scan edge channels “1A”–“1b,” “2A”–
“2b” and “3A”–“3b.”
• To change the scan direction, push [] or [].
r To cancel the scan, push any key except [ ], []/[],
[MONI] or [FUNC](M).
NOTE: Scan edge channels, 1A–3A/1b–3b, must be pro-
grammed in advance. Program them in the same manner
as regular memory channels. (p. 25)
If identical frequencies are programmed into the scan
edge channels, the programmed scan will not function.
PROGRAMMED SCAN (See the next topic)
The Programmed scan P1 scans between 1A and 1b, P2
scans between 2A and 2b, and P3 scans between 3A and 3b
frequencies.
