Priority Scanning

Specify a priority frequency of your choice to the priority

channel. With Priority Scanning, the receiver checks the

priority channel every 5 seconds and switches to this

channel if there is reception. If reception is broken, the

receiver will return to previous status.

You can run Priority Scanning during any scanning or

tuning modes.
