MEMORY SCAN
Memory Scan monitors all memory channels in which
you have stored frequencies (All-Channel Scan) or
only a desired group of memory channels (Group
Scan).
ALL-CHANNEL SCAN
The transceiver scans all of the memory channels in
which you have stored frequencies.
1 Press [MR] (1 s).
• Scan starts from the last memory channel
number and ascends up through the channel
numbers (default). Turn the Tuning control or
press [ ]/ [ ] to change the scanning direction.
• To jump to a desired channel while scanning,
quickly turn the Tuning control.
2 To stop the All-Channel Scan, press [MR] or
[PTT].
Note:
◆ You must have 2 or more memory channels that contain the data,
excluding the special function memory channels.
◆ If “CURRENT BAND” is selected for Menu No. 3 (MR METHOD),
it scans only Memory channels that have the same frequency
band data.
◆ The transceiver stops scanning in all modes when it detects a
signal.
GROUP SCAN
In order to easily manage all 400 memory channels,
they are divided into 8 groups {page 18}. For the
purpose of Group Scan, you can select a particular
memory group to be scanned, depending on the
situation. Using the Memory Group Link function
{below}, you can scan all the linked memory groups.
1 Press [MR].
2 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
a memory channel in the group you want to scan.
For example, if you want to scan the group 0
memory channels, recall memory channel 12
(group 0 contains memory channels 0 ~ 49).
3 Press [MHz] (1 s).
• The memory channels within the selected
group are scanned.
• If the group is linked to other groups {below},
all the linked groups are also scanned.
4 To stop the Group Scan, press [MHz] or [PTT].
Note:
◆ You must have 2 or more memory channels that contain the data,
excluding the special function memory channels.
◆ The Group Scan scans all available memory channels,
regardless of Menu No. 3 (MR METHOD) selection {page 16}.
◆ The transceiver stops scanning in all modes when it detects a
signal.
■ Memory Group Link
Although the 400 memory channels are divided
into 8 groups {page 18}, you may sometimes want
to scan two or more groups. In this case, use the
Memory Group Link function.
1 Press [MNU] to enter Menu mode.
2 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to
select Menu No. 2 (M.GRP LINK).
3 Press [ ] or [MNU].
• The memory group numbers appear.
4 Move the cursor using [ ]/ [ ], then turn the
Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select or
deselect the group to be linked.
• Linked groups appear at the bottom of the
display (in the example below, groups 0, 1,
3 and 5 are linked).
5 Press [ ] or [MNU] to store the setting.
Otherwise, press [ ] or [PTT] to cancel.
• You can press [MONI] to cancel the all links
at once.
• You can also press [0] ~ [7] to select or
deselect the group to be linked.
