[. . . ] This scan allows you to select a channel that will be monitored more often than the other channels while scanning (for this scan to work properly you must have at least 6 channels in the scan list). This allows you to scan only two channels of your choice. You must have more than one channel programmed in the scan list in order for your 70-440BP to scan them. The advanced scan function of the radio allows optionally looking for carrier or carrier with "CTCSS" or "DCS. " Creating the Scan-List. 1) Scroll the channel list, channels which show the "·" icon, are in the "SCAN" list. 2) Select the channel, which is to be added or deleted from the "Scan" list. Adding and removing channels from the Scan list is not available during scanning. 3) Press "CALL" + "MON" button, the "·" icon will appear or disappear. (See step 1 above. ) Activating, Deactivating Normal Scan 1) Press the "CALL" button + key. You will see the channel numbers cycling continuously. key by accident, the radio will 2) To stop scanning press the "CALL" button + If when deactivating Normal scan you press the "CALL" button + key to deactivate the Normal scan the be in Priority scan. If you press the "CALL" button + radio will now be in Dual Watch (as described later). In this case to deactivate both scans you must first press the "CALL" button + then press the correct buttons "CALL" button + key. NOTE: If the Scan List has no channels, a low tone (error beep) will be heard when the "CALL" + key is pressed, no channel will be scrolled in the display. At least two channels must be in the Scan List for the Unit to be put in the SCAN Mode. When a signal is received on a channel, the radio will stop scanning and the speaker will become un-muted. When the activity on that channel ceases, the unit will automatically resume scanning. If CTCSS/DCS have been previously programmed, the scanning will stop only if the received carrier has the appropriate signaling. If "PTT" is pressed during scanning, the radio will transmit on the first vacant channel. In case of no activity, the Unit will automatically resume scanning. Selecting a Priority Channel One channel can be assigned as a "Priority Channel". The scanning will look back at the priority channel most frequently. Current radio version only allows for PC programming of another priority channel. Page.
