CALL CHANNEL
Call Channel default settings:
•On K and M market models, pressing [CALL] changes the
transceiver to the Call Channel.
•On E market models, pressing [CALL] causes the
transceiver to transmit a 1750 Hz tone {page 25}.
The Call Channel can be recalled instantly no matter
what frequency the transceiver is operating on.  For
instance, you may use the Call Channel as an
emergency channel within your group.  In this case, Call
Scan {page 43} will be useful.

Note:
◆When you recall an odd-split Call Channel, “+” and “–” appear on
the display.
◆Transmit offset status and Reverse status are not stored in anodd-split Call Channel.
WEATHER ALERT (K MARKET MODELS ONLY)
Any of the NOAA Weather Radio channels can be
programmed to the AL memory channel of the
transceiver.  The transceiver can be configured to check
the NOAA Weather Alert tone (1050 Hz) and will
automatically alert you by recalling and monitoring the
Weather Radio frequency when the Weather Alert...

NORMAL SCAN
When you are operating the transceiver in VFO Mode,
3 types of scanning are available:  Band Scan, Program
Scan, and MHz Scan.
BAND SCAN
The transceiver scans the entire band of the frequency
you selected.  For example, if you are operating and
receiving at 144.525 MHz, it scans all the frequencies
available for the VHF band.  (Refer to receiver VFO
frequency range in the specifications {page 72}.)  When
the current VFO receive frequency is outside the Program
Scan frequency range...

7Turn the Tuning control or press Mic [UP]/[DWN] to
select a matching Memory Channel from U0 ~ U2.
•For example, if you have selected “L0” in step 3,
select Memory Channel “U0”.
8Press [MR] to store the end frequency in the
Memory Channel.
■Performing Program Scan
1Press [VFO] and turn the Tuning control to select
a frequency within the frequency range of Memory
Channel L0/U0 ~ L2/U2.
2Press [VFO] (1s) to start Program Scan.

MEMORY SCAN
Memory Scan monitors Memory Channels in which you
have stored frequencies.
ALL-CHANNEL SCAN
The transceiver scans all of the Memory Channels in
which you have stored frequencies.
1Press [MR] (1s).
•Scan starts from the last Memory Channel number and
ascends up through the channel numbers (default).
•To jump to a desired channel while scanning, quickly
turn the Tuning control.
•To reverse the scan direction, turn the Tuning control or
press Mic [UP]/[DWN].

Mode) you want to monitor.
•In VFO Mode, turn the Tuning control or press Mic [UP]/
[DWN] to select the desired frequency.
•In Memory Recall Mode, turn the Tuning control or
press Mic [UP]/[DWN] to select the Memory Channel
you want to monitor.
