5 SCAN OPERATION ■ Scan types Scanning is an efficient way to locate signals quickly over a wide frequency range. The transceiver has priority scan and normal scan. In addition, the weather alert and auto scan functions are available for standby convenience. These functions can be activated simultaneously, depending on the setting in the set mode. (pgs. 18, 19) PRIORITY SCAN CH 01 CH 02 Set the TAG channels (scanned channels) before scanning. Clear the TAG for unwanted channels which inconveniently stop scanning, such as those for digital communications. (p. 15) Choose the desired scan type from "Priority" or "Normal" in the set mode. (p. 18) NORMAL SCAN CH 01 CH 02 WX* CH 16 CH 03 WX* CH 03 CH 05 CH 04 * Previously selected weather channel. (when the weather alert function is activated) Priority scan searches through all TAG channels in sequence while monitoring Channel 16. When a signal is detected on Channel 16, scan pauses until the signal disappears; when a signal is detected on a channel other than Channel 16, scan becomes Dualwatch until the signal disappears. 14 CH 05 CH 04 * Previously selected weather channel. (when the weather alert function is activated) Normal scan, like priority scan, searches through all TAG channels in sequence. However, unlike priority scan, Channel 16 is not checked unless Channel 16 is set as a TAG channel.
