3 BASIC OPERATION
I Scan function
The transceiver has a high speed scan function for standing
by on utility signals. The scan speed is 8 channels/sec. (ex-
cept when the weather alert function is in use).
Two scan types are available: normal scan (scans all tag
channels in sequence) and priority scan (checks channel 16
while scanning). These scans can be selected in set mode
(p. 19).

channels with [CH/WX•U/I/C].
• When the weather alert function is in use, select the desired WX
channel in the display, then perform the above operation.
➁ Push [SCAN] to start scanning.

• “16” appears during priority scan.
➂ To stop the scan, push [SCAN] again.
