SCAN RESUME METHOD
The transceiver stops scanning at the frequency (or
Memory Channel) where a signal is detected.  It then
continues or stops scanning according to which Resume
Mode you have selected.
Time-Operated Mode (default)
The transceiver remains on a busy frequency (or
Memory Channel) for approximately 5 seconds, then
continues to scan even if the signal is still present.
Carrier-Operated Mode
The transceiver remains on a busy frequency (or
Memory Channel) until the signal drops out.  There is
a 2-second delay between signal dropout and scan
resumption.
Seek Mode
The transceiver moves to a frequency (or Memory
Channel) where a signal is present and stops.
To change the scan resume method:
Press [F][MENU] and turn the Tuning control to
select Menu No. 13 (SCAN).
Press [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to select
“TO” (Time-Operated; default), “CO” (Carrier-
Operated), or “SE” (Seek) Mode.
Press [MENU] to store the new setting or any other
key to cancel.
Press any key other than [MENU] to exit Menu Mode.
Note:  To temporarily stop scanning and monitor weak signals, press
the Mic PF key assigned the MONI function {page 59}.  Press the
MONI key again to resume scanning.
