Scanning Function
Programmable Memory Channel Scan (PMS)
Registering to the Programmable Memory Channels
50 sets of PMS memory channels (L1/U1 to L50/U50) are available.
To specify a range of frequencies to scan, register the lower limit frequency to a memory
channel L1 to L50 and the upper limit frequency to a memory channel U1 to U50. Make
sure to use the corresponding numbers for the lower and upper limit memory channels.
PMS memory channels (L1/U1 to L50/U50) are listed after memory channel 999. Pressing
the
key advances the memories at 100-channel increments.
For details on registering frequencies to the memory channels, see “Registering to
Memory Channel” on page 55.
Cautions
y If the upper and lower limit frequencies are set in different steps, the scan width must be 100 kHz or
more.
y The lower and upper limit memory channels must be within the same frequency band. Programmable
memory channel scanning does not function if the frequency bands are different.
Performing Programmable Memory Channel Scan
The programmable memory channel scan allows setting a specified frequency range
within the same frequency band.
1 Press the key to enter Memory mode.
2 Recall the PMS memory channel to which the lower limit or upper limit of the frequency
is registered.
3 Touch [F MW].
The function menu appears on the LCD.
4 Touch [SCAN].
Programmable memory channel scanning starts.
During scanning, “PMS” and “P*” appear.
Tips • Rotate the DIAL clockwise to start scanning toward higher
frequencies.
• Rotate the DIAL counterclockwise to start scanning toward
lower frequencies.
• When a signal is received during scanning, scanning stops
for 5 seconds to receive the signal on frequency.
• When scanning stops, the decimal point blinks and the LCD
remains illuminated.
• After receiving the signal for 5 seconds, scanning resumes.
• Touch [STOP] or press
to cancel scanning.
• After scanning is canceled, press the
key twice to
return to VFO mode.
The decimal point blinks.
