Channel Scan Operation
This feature allows you to monitor all channels automatically for valid
signals. While scanning, you can transmit and receive. When a signal is
received, the scan is interrupted and will return to scan mode approxi-
mately 5 seconds after reception is terminated.
NOTE: While the SCAN mode is active, the Function (F) button is inopera-
tive. In addition, the scan mode will reduce the overall battery life
since the battery save function is overridden.
To enable the channel scan mode:
- From GMRS/FRS standby mode, momentarily press the SCAN But
ton; SCAN will appear on the LCD display.
- The radio will automatically display each channel (1-22) in ascending
order to find an active main channel.
- When unit doesn’t find any signals and you want to transmit, press the
PTT Button to return to primary channel operation. The transceiver will
automatically resume scanning approximately 5 seconds after the
communication is completed.
- If there is no activity and you want to leave the scan mode, press the
SCAN button momentarily and the unit will return to normal operation;
the SCAN icon will disappear from the LCD display.
