Select Analog Only and the following options display in Set CTCSS/ DCS menu: Search, CTCSS, and Set Lockout. • Set Modulation. When you select AUTO, the radio will use the default mode for that selected frequency. If you want to intentionally change the mode and bandwidth, you can change it manually. Press the FUNC knob + 9 MOD during Scan Hold mode to override modulation. • Set Delay Time. Scroll to the desired delay time and press E Yes to save and exit. - 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 30 seconds. Sets the time to stay on that frequency after transmission ends. Doing this lets you wait for a delayed reply to that transmission. If set to 0, the scan will start as soon as the transmission ends; if there is a reply after 1 second, you may miss it. Increasing this time will slow down the overall scan time. - -2, -5, -10, -30 seconds. If set to a negative value on that frequency, the radio stays on that frequency for the set amount of time after receiving a signal. For example, if you select -2 seconds, you will only hear the first 2 seconds of a 10 second transmission. • Set Attenuator Add attenuation per individual frequency. Attenuation can also be set globally. If a strong signal source exists near the desired frequency, it may interfere with reception of the desired frequency. Turning ATT ON weakens the received signal but may improve communication clarity. Under normal circumstances, use it with OFF. - Press the FUNC knob + 7 ATT to override this setting during Scan/ Hold mode. - Press and hold the FUNC knob + 7 ATT to toggle global attenuator. • Set Priority. Select On to set this channel as a Priority Channel or Off to deselect it. See the Priority Scan section beginning on page 49 for more details. • Set Alert. You can program your scanner to alert you when a channel is received. For each alert in the scanner, you can select from 9 different tone patterns, 15 volume settings, 7 colors, and 2 color patterns. - Set Alert Tone. Choose from 9 alert sounds (1 - 9) or Off. The radio sounds each tone as it is selected. After selecting the tone, Set Level 36
