6FDQ)XQFWLRQ
Use this function to automatically search for signals. In the set mode, chose TIMER mode or the BUSY mode
to determine the desired resuming condition. If the CTCSS (TSQ) squelch or DCS squelch is set, the audio
can be heard only when the tone / code matched the incoming signal. Otherwise, scanning stops but no
audio will be heard. The direction of scan, upward or downward, can be changed during the scan by
rotating dial or pressing UP/DOWN keys on the microphone.
Automatic Band Exchange Function (A BX)
This function automatically selects whichever band is active, hearing a signal, as the main
band. For example, if VHF has been selected as the main band the ABX function will switch
automatically to the UHF band if it becomes active and VHF is not receiving a signal. UHF will
remain in the main band as long as it hears a signal then will switch back to the VHF band
whether or not it is active, likewise, if UHF is the main band ABX automatically switches to
VHF if it becomes active while UHF is quiet. This function is built in the radio and cannot be
cancelled.
