5. SCANS ∂F scan and Fine ∂F scan ∂F scan and Fine ∂F scan (Example: Span: ±10 kHz) 146.17 MHz 146.18 MHz 146.19 MHz Scan Scan Start Jump Scan edge Center Scan edge Repeatedly scans within the ∂F span area. The scan starts from the center frequency. LLIn fine scan (programmed or ∂F), the scan speed decreases when the squelch opens, but the transceiver keeps scanning. The scan tuning step changes to 10 Hz when the squelch opens. Temporary Skip function This function temporarily skips unwanted frequencies (or memory channels) during a scan for the set period of time or condition, without changing the Skip Channel setting. 1. Start a scan. •• When a signal is detected, the scan pauses. 2. Push QUICK . 3. Touch [Temporary Skip Set]. DD∂F scan operation 1. Set the center frequency. 2. Set the operating mode and tuning step. (Example: FM, 1 kHz) LYou can also change these settings while scanning. 3. Display the SCAN screen. MENU » SCAN 4. Touch [∂F SPAN] several times to select the span. •• Each touch changes the span. •• Scan resumes. 5. Touch [∂F F scan starts. TIP: •• Up to 20 Temporary Skip frequencies or Memory channels can be set. When the 21st frequency or Memory channel is set, the oldest setting is automatically deleted. Blinks LWhen a signal is detected, the scan pauses according to the "SCAN Resume" setting, and then resumes. LTo turn the TS function to scan by the frequency step setting, touch the 100 kHz digit on the frequency readout. LTo cancel the scan, touch [∂F] again. 6. To switch to the Fine ∂F scan, touch [FINE]. ••The scan frequency step changes to 50 Hz. Blinks •• The Temporary Skip function is canceled when the Temporary Skip Timer (Default: 5 min) has passed, or when selecting "Temp Skip Cancel" in the Quick menu. LTouching [FINE] switches between the ∂F scan and the Fine ∂F scan. 7. To close the SCAN screen, push EXIT . 5-7
