channel number appears on the display and blinks.
3 When the signal is no longer present, the transceiver waits
for 5 seconds before scanning continues.
If a new signal appears before the 5 seconds elapse, the
transceiver will remain on the channel until the new signal is
no longer present, at which time it will again wait for 5 seconds
before continuing.
4 To end the scan at any time, press and hold the key for
1 second.
The transceiver returns to the channel you were using before
you started scanning.
ReveRt Channel
The revert channel is the channel from which you start
scanning. So, for example, if you are on channel 1 when you
begin to scan, your revert channel is channel 1.
Duringscan,pressingthe
PTT switch will automatically
select the transceiver’s revert channel (in the above example,
channel 1) and you will begin transmitting. However, if you are
currently paused on another channel after having received a
signal (for example, channel 2), pressing the
PTT switch will
allow you to transmit on that channel, rather than returning
to the revert channel. Scanning will resume after 5 seconds,
unless a signal is present on the channel.
