Programmed VFO Scan [36]
You must start out in the VFO mode (page 11). You press and hold the BAND
key for 1 second and will see a "P" in the upper left
corner of the display. You have less than 3 seconds
to turn the Dial knob before you revert back to
VFO mode.
As you turn the tuning Dial knob, the display will show various bandwidths for
the Programmed VFO scanner: ±1 MHz, ±2 MHz, and ±5 MHz. I assume this is
the bandwidth of the receiver. Do not confuse the bandwidth with the amount the
VFO advances as it moves along the band.
You are also shown the option "ALL", PMS
X
(Programmable Memory Scan,
X
is a number), and "BAND". Select ALL if you want to scan all 5 bands.
When Programmed VFO Scanning is occurring, you will see
PSC (Programmed SCanning) in the upper left
corner.
Select BAND if you only want to scan the band that contains the initial VFO
frequency.
Here you see a frequency within the 144 MHz band.
The VFO would scan from 108.000 MHz to 200.000
MHz and then repeat.
