meter level will open the squelch.
VOICE: In this mode, the scanner will stop on a signal with a voice signal.
VOICE: In this mode, the scanner will stop on a signal which have a voice signal.
Setting the Scan-Resume Technique
Three options for the Scan-Resume mode are available:
DELAY: In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters, and will hold until
the signal disappears. Two after the squelch closes, scanner resumes automatically
PAUSE: In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters. 2 seconds after the
carrier has dropped because the other station(s) ceased transmission, the scanner will
resume. In the case of constant-carrier signals like Weather Station broadcasts, the
scanner will likely remain on this frequency indefinitely.
HOLD: In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters. It will not restart
automatically; you must manually re-initiate scanning if you wish to resume.
Here is the procedure for setting up the Scan-Resume mode:
1. Press the [F] key momentarily, then press the [ENT(SET)] key.
2. Confirm that the cursor is on the VFO menu, then press the [ENT(SET)] key.
3. If you set the Scan-Resume mode for the MAIN VFO, rotate the Confirm that the
cursor is on the MainScan menu.
4. Press the [
(BEEP)] key to select the desired Scan-Resume mode among the
DELAY, PAUSE, and HOLD.
5. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the cursor to the END menu, then press the
[ENT(SET)] key.
6. Confirm that the cursor is on the WRITE menu, then press the [ENT(SET)] key to
save a new setting and exit the Set mode.
