Basic Operation
Bugging Detector
The DJ-X2 detects a bugging signal by scanning frequencies in the pro-
grammed memory banks. When a listening microphone is found, the DJ-X2
notifies you with its display.
Caution!Be sure to remove the earphone when detecting bugging.
1Hold down the [MONI (SCRT)] key, and turn the power ON. 
l will appear on the display, and the DJ-X2 starts scanning according to
the set memory bank link.
When a bugging signal is found, dC flashes on the display, and scanning
stops.
Press the [VOL/SQL (SET)] key to adjust the audio volume.
Adjust the audio volume so that the howling noise sounds at an angle to the
DJ-X2, and detect the listening microphone. Be sure not to cover the speaker.

Basic Operation
24Cautions!
· Operate in a quiet environment where doors and windows are closed. It is
hard to find a listening microphone in a noisy environment.
· Depending on the modulation setting, this function may not work correctly.
· When the battery voltage is low, this function does not work normally. Be
sure to charge the internal lithium-ion battery completely, load new alka-
line batteries, or supply sufficient voltage from the DC power supply.
· Since this function detects a bugging signal by the presence or absence
of a howling noise, a loud sound may be emitted during detection, howev-
er, it is not a malfunction.
· Detection area is approximately 15 - 20 square meters (18 - 24 square
yards) depending on the type of listening microphone.
How do you stop detecting?
Turn the power OFF, then hold down the [MONI (SCRT)] key and turn the
power ON. 
Keylock
To prevent incorrect or unauthorized operations, you can lock the keys.
The following operations can be used while the keylock is ON.

30Tip
The settings you change in Expert mode are valid even after returning to Easy
mode, however, they cannot be changed in Easy mode.
Memory Function
This function allows you to program the frequently used frequencies, and call
them up. A programmed frequency is called a channel.
The DJ-X2 has four types of memory functions; Memory bank channel, Program
channel, Search-pass memory channel, and Priority channel.
nTypes of Memory
Memory bank channel ····················The channel which is called up in Memory
mode. The DJ-X2 has 700 Memory bank
channels (70 channels 5 10 banks). You
can call up a frequently used frequency
easily.
Program channel·····························A channel which is used for Program scan.
You can program 20 pairs of frequency
ranges (upper and lower limits). (P.20)
Search-pass memory channel ········If you program a frequency which you do
not want to use, it will be skipped when exe-
cuting VFO scan and Program scan. You
can program up to 100 Skip channels.
Priority channel ·······························The channel which is used for Priority monitor-
ing functions. You can program up to 8 chan-
nels.(P.43)
Tip
When you program a frequency in Search-pass memory channel, you
have to set the mode in FM. Please refer to Selecting the Modulation
Mode (page 34) for the setting.
nProgramming a channel
To program the channel:
1In VFO mode, select the frequency which you want to program. 
2Press the [FUNC/ENTER] key.
F will appear on the display.
