346SCAN OPERATION12345678910111213141516■ Scan start/stopD PreparationScan resume condition (p. 37); program scan edges (p. 35);program two or more memory channels (p. 24); set skip set-tings (p. 36), if desired.D OperationqPush [VFO/MR•S.MW] once or twice to select VFO modefor full/programmed scan; or to select memory mode formemory/bank scan.• Select the desired bank in memory type selection mode for bankscan.wSet the squelch level to the point where noise is just muted.e Push and hold [MODE•SCAN] for 1 sec. to start the scan.• To change the scanning direction, rotate the main band’s [DIAL].• The memory channel readout blinks the scan type as below.r Push [SET•SKIP] (or [ATT•PRIO]) to select full and pro-grammed scan (P00 to P49), if VFO is selected in step q.t To stop the scan, push [MODE•SCAN].About the scanning steps: The selected tuning step ineach frequency band (in VFO mode) is used during scan.The bank-link setting can be changed in set mode. See(p. 56) for details.• During full scan • During programmed scan • During memory scan • During bank scanIndicates scan edge channels.• P01 stands for 01A/01B• P00 to P49 are available whenthey are programmed, and se-lected with [SET•SKIP].Indicates bank channel.Push [SET•SKIP] to se-lect full (ALL) or program-med scan (P00–P49) insequence.While pushing and holding [MODE•SCAN], rotate [DIAL]also to select full (ALL) or programmed scan (P00–P49).NOTE: When SSB, CW, AM, FM, WFM or Digital modefrequencies are programmed into memory channels randomly,memory scan is slow because changing modes takes time. Inthis case, assign the SSB, CW, AM, FM, WFM or Digital modefrequencies into separate banks where bank scan can beused. And using the bank scan is helpful.IMPORTANT!: To perform memory or bank scan, two ormore memory/bank channels MUST be programmed, oth-erwise the scan will not start.
