[. . . ] This equipment generates, uses and can generate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: · Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. · Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. [. . . ] (Refer to receiver VFO frequency range in the specifications {page 122}. ) When the current VFO receive frequency is outside the Program Scan frequency range {page 59}, the transceiver scans the entire frequency range available for the current VFO. 2 Turn the Tuning control to select the frequency outside of the Program Scan frequency range. 60 3 Press [VFO] (1 s) to start Band Scan. 4 To stop Band Scan, press [VFO] or [PTT]. Note: x x x x While scanning, you can change the scan frequency direction by turning the Tuning control. The transceiver scans the frequency range that is stored in Menu No. If you select a frequency within the L0/U0 ~ L2/U2 range in step 3, Program Scan {page 61} starts. If you press [MONI/SQL], Band Scan temporarily pauses. Release [MONI/SQL] to resume scanning. Program Scan You can limit the scanning frequency range. There are 3 memory channel pairs (L0/U0 ~ L2/U2) available for specifying the start and end frequencies. Program Scan monitors the range between the start and end frequencies that you have stored in these memory channels. Before performing Program Scan, store the Program Scan frequency range to one of the memory channel pairs (L0/U0 ~ L2/U2). s Storing a Program Scan Frequency Range 1 Press [VFO]. Priority Scan checks the activities of the Priority Channel every 3 seconds. If the transceiver detects a signal on the Priority Channel, it recalls the frequency. Note: If you do not operate any control or key for 3 seconds after the signal drops, the transceiver returns to the original frequency and resumes Priority Scan. Programming Priority Channels 1 Press [VFO]. 2 Turn the Tuning control to select your desired Priority Channel frequency. 3 Select selective call functions, if necessary. 4 Press [F], [MR]. · The memory channel number appears and blinks. 5 Turn the Tuning control to select "Pr". 6 Press [MR] to store the data on the Priority Channel. 65 Using Priority Scan 1 Press [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to select Menu No. 2 Press [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to select "ON". 3 Press [MENU] to store the setting. · "PRI" appears. 4 Press any key other than [PTT], [LAMP], and [MONI/SQL] to exit Menu Mode. · · The transceiver checks for a signal on the Priority Channel every 3 seconds. When the transceiver detects a signal on the Priority Channel, "Pr" blinks and the frequency changes to the Priority Channel. If you do not operate any control or key for 3 seconds after the signal drops, the transceiver returns to the original frequency and resumes Priority Scan. You can also press any key other than [PTT], [F], [LAMP], [MONI/SQL], [F] then [MONI/SQL] and [F] (1 s) to exit Priority Scan while "Pr" is blinking. If a signal is received on a Priority Channel with a CTCSS or DCS code programmed, the Priority Channel is recalled only when the programmed tone/ code matches. Press and hold [MONI/SQL] to pause Priority Scan when the transceiver is not displaying the Priority Channel.
