Among the memories you have programmed, there may be some stations which you do 

not wish to scan. For example, broadcast signals (which are transmitted continuously) 

will cause the scanner to stop, and such channels may be skipped so as to avoid this in-

convenience.
To remove a channel from the scanning loop:
1.  Press the   key momentarily, then rotate the 

 knob, as needed, until Operating 

Function Row 2 [MW, MC, TAG] appears on the display.

2.  Recall the memory channel to be skipped.

3.  Press the 

 (MC) key momentarily. The “hyphen” in the 

memory channel number will change to become a “dot”; this 

shows that this channel now is not included in the scanning 

loop.

4.  Repeat steps 2 and 3 as many times as necessary to skip all 

the channels you do not wish to scan.

5.  Initiate memory scanning; you will observe that the channels 

you marked to be skipped are not included in the scanning 

loop. 

6.  Press the PTT switch to stop the scan; you may now use the 

 knob to step 

through the channels manually - one at a time - and you will observe that the “Skipped” 

channels are, nonetheless, available for recall by manual means.

7.  You may restore a previously-skipped channel to the scanning loop by selecting the 

channel manually, then pressing the 

 (MC) key momentarily so that the “dot” 

changes to become a “hyphen”.

Scanning operation requires that you have the transceiver’s audio squelched. The 

transceiver then “assumes” that the opening of the squelch corresponds to the dis-

covery of a signal you may wish to listen to.
Once the scan has been halted, the transceiver pauses on the signal and stays 

locked on its frequency for five seconds (default pause time). Thereafter, scanning 

will resume whether or not the other station’s transmission has ended. The scan 

resume interval can be set to 3/5/10 seconds, or off ( whereby scanning quits when 

a signal is received) via Menu #41 (RESUME); see 64 for details.
