11 SCANS ■ Programmed scan/Fine programmed scan (VFO mode) A programmed scan searches for signals between Program Scan Edge channels "1A-3A" and "1b-3b." Before starting the programmed scan, scan edges must be programmed into these channels. See the previous page for scan edge programming. If the same frequencies are programmed into the Program Scan Edge channels, the programmed scan will not start. q P ush [VFO/MEMO] to select the VFO mode. w P ush the mode switch to select the desired operat- ing mode. • T he operating mode can also be changed while scan- ning. e P ush [TS] one or more times to select a tuning step. (p. 38) • The tuning step can also be changed while scanning. r P ush [MENU] one or more times to display the "M2" screen (Menu 2). t P ush [SCAN](F-1) to display the "SCAN" screen. y Set [RF/SQL] open or closed. • The scan performance differs, depending on the squelch setting when the scan was started. See page 146 for details. • If the [RF/SQL] control function is set to "AUTO," the squelch is always open in the SSB, CW and RTTY modes. (pp. 44, 162) u H old down [PRO](F-1) for 1 second to select the desired scan range between "P1," "P2" and "P3." • The scan searches between programmed scan channels 1A-1b (P1), 2A-2b (P2) or 3A-3b (P3). i Push [PRO](F-1) to start the programmed scan. • T he MHz and kHz decimal points, and the selected scan range display blink while scanning. • If "Up/Down" is selected as the "MAIN DIAL (SCAN)" option in the Scan Set mode, rotating [MAIN DIAL] changes the scanning direction. (p. 147) o W hen the scan detects a signal, the scan stops, pauses or ignores it, depending on the Scan Resume function, the VSC function or the squelch status. !0 Push [PRO](F-1) to cancel the scan.
