Scan is useful for monitoring signals on the transceiver
channels. When scanning, the transceiver checks for a signal on
each channel and only stops if a signal is present.
If the QT/DQT matches, the transceiver stops at the channel and
opens the squelch so you can listen to the call. If the QT/DQT
does not match, the call is ignored and scanning continues.
Note: You can only use Scan if there are at least 2 channels
available on your transceiver that are not locked out of Scan.
To start scanning, momentarily press the key programmed as
either Scan or Scan + Temporary Delete.
• The LED indicator flashes green and scanning starts from the current
channel and ascends through the channel numbers.
• When a signal is detected on a channel and the QT/DQT matches,
scan pauses at that channel and the LED indicator lights green.
• When the signal is no longer present, scanning continues after 3
seconds (default).
To end Scan, press the Scan or Scan + Temporary Delete key
again.
