7 SCAN OPERATION ■ Scan types A scan automatically searches for signals, and makes it easier to locate new stations for contact or listening purposes. PROGRAMMED SCAN (See the next topic) 1A Band 2A edge 3A Scan edges Scan Jump 1b 2b Band 3b edge The Programmed scan P1 scans between 1A and 1b, P2 scans between 2A and 2b, and P3 scans between 3A and 3b frequencies.

This scan is useful for checking for signals within a specific frequency range, such as repeater output frequencies, etc. q P ush [VFO/MR/CALL] several times to select the VFO mode. w P ush [FUNC](M), and then [SCAN](5) to start a scan. e P ush [FUNC](M), and then [SET](8) several times to select a desired scan type between "P1," "P2," "P3" or "AL." • "AL" for full scan, "P1," "P2" and "P3" for programmed scan between the programmed scan edge channels "1A"-"1b," "2A"- "2b" and "3A"-"3b." • To change the scan direction, push [] or []. r T o cancel the scan, push any key except MONI] or [FUNC](M). NOTE: Scan edge channels, 1A-3A/1b-3b, must be programmed in advance. Program them in the same manner as regular memory channels. (p. 25) If identical frequencies are programmed into the scan edge channels, the programmed scan will not function.
