1) When the Weather Alert Scan feature is engaged, the Scan-Resume mode
is fixed to “TIME.”
2) If you are just scanning the Weather Broadcast Channels, the FT-60R's
receiver will remain muted indefinitely unless the Alert Tone is received. This yields a
long period of monitoring time, as no power will be consumed via audio output while
scanning for the Alert Tone is in progress.

This feature allows you to set sub-band limits for either scanning or manual VFO opera-
tion. For example, you might wish to set up a limit (in North America) of 144.300 MHz to
148.000 MHz so as to prevent encroachment into the SSB/CW “Weak Signal” portion of
the band below 144.300 MHz. Here’s how to do this:
1.
Set the radio to the VFO mode by pressing the [V/M(PRI)] key, if necessary.
2.
Using the techniques learned earlier, store (per the above concept) 144.300 MHz into
Memory Channel #L01 (the “L” designates the Lower sub-band limit).
3.
Likewise, store 148.000 MHz into Memory Channel #U01 (the “U” designates the
Upper sub-band limit).
4.
Confirm the radio is in the VFO mode, press and hold in the [BAND(BAND DN)] key
for one second, and rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired
PMS frequency pair (PMSxx), then press the [BAND(BAND
DN)] key.
5.
Now, press and hold in the [V/M(PRI)] key for one second to initiate the Program-
mable (Band Limit) Memory Scan; the Memory Channel number will be replaced by
“Pxx.” Scanning and tuning will now be limited within the just-programmed range.
6.
50 pairs of Band Limit memories, labeled L01/U01 through L50/U50 are available.
You therefore can set upper and lower operation limits in multiple segments on a
number of bands, if you like.
