18FT-70DR/DE Advance ManualScanning Only the Specified Memory Channels1. Recall the memory channel registered as a specified memory channel.2. Press the [F] key, then press the [2](SCAN) key to start scanning.Only the memory channels registered as the specified memory channels arescanned.Unless two or more specified memory channels are registered, the specified memory channelscanning does not function.Programmable Memory Channel Scan (PMS)Registering to the Programmable Memory Channels50 sets of PMS memory channels (L1/U1 to L50/U50) are available.Register the lower and upper frequencies of the frequency range in a pair of Program-mable Memory Channels,L££: Lower limit memory channelU££: Upper limit memory channelFor more details on registering frequencies to the memory channel, see “Registering ToMemory channel” (see the operating manual).z Make sure to use the corresponding numbers for the lower and upper limit memory channels.z Set the PMS memory channel for performing the Programmable Memory scanning (PMS) asfollows.• The scan width of the upper and lower limit frequencies must be 100 kHz or more.• The lower and upper limit memory channels must be within the same frequency band.• The lower and upper limit memory channels must not register the lower and upperchannels in reverse.• The PMS memory channel must not register a skip memory channel.Performing Programmable Memory Channel ScanThe programmable memory channel scan allows scanning a specified frequency rangewithin the same frequency band.1. Recall the PMS memory channel to which the lower limit (L££) or upper limit (U££)of the frequency is registered.2. Press the [F] key, then press the [2](SCAN) key.Programmable memory channel scanning starts.• During scanning, “P££” appears on the upper left side of the LCD.• If the DIAL knob is rotated while scanning is in progress, the scanning will contin-ue up or down in frequency according to the direction of the DIAL Knob rotation.If the scanner halts on an incoming signal, the back light will turn ON and the dec-imal point between the “MHz” and “kHz” digits of the frequency display will blink.Scanning will resume in about five seconds.3. Press the PTT switch to cancel the scanning.z If the scan has paused on a signal, rotating the DIAL knob will cause scanning to resumeinstantly.z During scanning, the frequency may be changed only within the programmed frequencyrange.z During scanning, press the [V/M] key to return to the normal memory mode.
