66SCANScan is a useful function for hands-off monitoring ofyour favorite frequencies. By becoming comfortablewith all types of Scan, you will increase your operatingefficiency.This transceiver provides the following types of scans.epyTnacS esopruPlamroNnacSnacSOFV ehtfodnaberitneehtsnacSdetcelesuoyycneuqerfmargorPnacSycneuqerfcificepsehtsnacSyromeMniderotssegnar992~092slennahcnacSzHM nihtiwseicneuqerfehtsnacSegnarzHM1ayromeMnacSlennahC-llAnacS,slennahcyromeMllasnacS992ot00morfnacSpuorG yromeMcificepsehtsnacSspuorglennahcllaCnacSOFV dnalennahcllaCehtsnacSycneuqerfOFVtnerrucehtyromeMlennahCdnalennahcllaCehtsnacSlennahcyromeMdetcelesehtlausiV*nacSOFVgnitarepotnerrucehtsnacSasallewsaycneuqerfforebmundeificepswolebdnaevobaseicneuqerflangisehT.ycneuqerftahtsilennahchcaefohtgnertshparg-rabanideyalpsidyromeMlennahCslennahcyromeMehtsnacSlangisehtsyalpsiddnaanilennahchcaefohtgnertshparg-rab* Visual Scan graphically shows how frequencies in a specific rangeare busy.Note:uWhile using CTCSS or DCS, Scan stops only for the signals thatcontain the same CTCSS tone or DCS code that you selected.uWhen using S-meter Squelch, Scan stops when the receivedsignal strength matches or exceeds the S-meter setting. Scanresumes 2 seconds after the signal level drops below the S-metersetting.uPressing and holding Mic [PTT] causes Scan to stop if it isfunctioning on a non TX band. Pressing Mic [PTT] on thescanning band causes Scan to stop.uStarting Scan switches OFF the Automatic Simplex Checker.NORMAL SCANWhen you are operating the transceiver in VFO mode,2 types of scanning are available.• VFO ScanThe transceiver scans the entire band of thefrequency you selected. For example, if you areoperating and receiving on the main transceiver’sVFO A at 14.195.00 MHz, it scans all thefrequencies in the range of 30.00 kHz to60.00000 MHz. (Refer to VFO frequency rangein the Specifications.)• Program ScanBy programming the start and end frequency inMemory channels 290 ~ 299 {page 62}, you canlimit the scanning frequency range. Since thereare 10 memory channels (290 ~ 299) available forspecifying the start and end frequency, you canselect one or more (a maximum of 10) ranges toscan. This is useful when you are waiting for a DXstation on a certain frequency but the station mayappear on slightly higher or lower frequency.VFOSCANVFO Scan scans the entire frequency range that isavailable for the current VFO. When the ProgramScan frequency range is not programmed or no ScanGroup is selected for the Program Scan, thetransceiver also scans the entire frequency rangeavailable for the current VFO.If one or more Program Scan frequency ranges areprogrammed in memory channels 290 to 299:1 Press [FUNC], [SCAN/ SG.SEL].2 If one or more memory channels are selected forthe Program Scan, the selected channels aredisplayed in a larger font on the main dot-matrixdisplay.In this case, press [•/ DCS/SEL] to temporarilydeselect all the channels. When there are no ScanGroup channels selected, “VFO SCN MODE”appears on the sub dot-matrix display.3 Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] to return to the currentVFO mode.4 Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] to start the VFO Scan.Note:uWhile scanning, you can change the scan speed by turning theRIT/ SUB control. Turn the control clockwise/ counterclockwiseto decrease/ increase the scan speed. The speed indicatorappears on the main dot-matrix display, where P1 is the fastestspeed and P9 is the slowest.uYou cannot change the VFO Scan speed in FM mode.uYou cannot change the VFO Scan speed on the sub-receiver.
