Deleting a Nuisance Channel

If a channel continually generates unwanted calls or noise
(termed a “nuisance” channel), you can temporarily remove the
unwanted channel from the scan list.

This capability does not apply to the channel designated as the
Selected Channel.

Procedure:

1

When your radio “locks on to” an unwanted or nuisance
channel, press the programmed Nuisance Channel Delete
button until you hear a tone.

2

Release the Nuisance Channel Delete button. The
nuisance channel is deleted.

Deleting a “nuisance” channel is only possible through the
programmed Nuisance Channel Delete button. This feature is
not accessible through the menu.

Restoring a Nuisance Channel

Procedure:
To restore the deleted nuisance channel, do one of the
following:

Turn the radio off and then power it on again, OR

Stop and restart a scan via the programmed Scan button or
menu, OR

Change the channel via the Channel Selector Knob.

Vote Scan

Vote Scan provides you with wide area coverage in areas where
there are multiple base stations transmitting identical
information on different analog channels.

Your radio scans analog channels of multiple base stations and
performs a voting process to select the strongest received
signal. Once that is established, your radio unmutes to
transmissions from that base station.

The LED blinks yellow and the vote scan icon appears on the
status bar.

To respond to a transmission during a Vote Scan, follow the
same procedures as Responding to a Transmission During a
Scan on
page 40.
