Operation
Channel scan
By scanning, you can monitor channels and codes for transmissions
and lock in on the
one that interests you. More importantly, you can find someone in
your group who has accidentally changed channels and is talking
during your scan.
1. To start scanning, briefly press and release the
button.
2. If you activate scan while the CTCSS code is set to 0, then the
radio will check for any activity on each channel, regardless of
the CTCSS code in use on that channel.
3. If you activate scan while the CTCSS code is set at 1 to 38,
then the radio will check for any activity on each channel,
except the CTCSS code 0 in use on that channel.
4. While the radio is scanning, the scan icon will display and the
radio will scroll through the channels.
5. When activity is detected on a channel, the radio will stop
scanning and you will hear whatever transmissions are
detected. The radio’s display will show the channel and CTCSS
code on which activity was detected.
6. If you want to respond to the transmission, press within 5
seconds and you can respond.
7. The radio will resume scanning after 5 seconds of inactivity on
the channel.
8. To stop scanning, briefly press and release .
Scan advance
If scan stops on a channel that you don’t want to listen to, briefly
press
or to resume scanning for the next active channel.
Nuisance delete
If scan continuously stops on an undesired channel, press and
hold
or for at least 3 seconds, then release. This will
temporarily remove the undesired channel from the scan list.
