Changing your Radio’s Settings
\
Scanning
By using J, you can monitor Channels and Codes for transmissions and lock in on
the one that interests you. More importantly, you can find someone in your group who
has accidentally changed Channels and is talking during your scan. You don’t have
to set a new Channel or Code, the radio just resets itself temporarily to that Channel
and Code and you can start talking.
• To start scanning, briefly press
J
.
Your Channel/Code screen displays
h
and begins to scroll through Channels. When
the radio detects channel activity, it stops on that channel and displays its Channel and
Code. You can talk to the person(s) transmitting without having to switch Channels by
pressing
M
.
• To stop scanning, briefly press
J
.
If you press
M
while the radio is scanning, the radio will transmit on the Channel
which was selected before you activated Scan.
If no transmission occurs within five seconds, scanning will resume.
If you want to scan channels without Interference Eliminator Codes, change the Code
for your set Channel to 0 before you briefly press J.
Note: To Scan Repeater Channels (T7200 only), refer to page 36.
