CALL SCAN
A Call channel can be stored for each amateur radio
band, such as the 144 MHz, 430/ 440 MHz, and 220
MHz (TH-F6A only) bands {page 19}. You can
monitor one of these Call channels and the current
operating frequency alternatively.
1 Select the frequency (in VFO or Memory Recall
mode) you want to monitor.
•
In VFO mode, press [A/B] to select the A or
B-band. Then, turn the Tuning control or press
[ ]/ [ ] to select the desired frequency.
•
In Memory Recall mode, turn the Tuning
control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select a memory
channel you want to monitor.
2 Press [CALL] (1 s) to start the Call Scan.
3 The Call channel for the band and the selected
VFO frequency or memory channel are monitored
alternatively.
4 To stop the Call Scan, press [PTT] or [CALL].
Note:
If you press [MONI], Call Scan temporarily pauses. Release
[MONI] to resume scanning.
The transceiver stops scanning in all modes when it detects a
signal.
If you press any of the following keys during the scan, the
transceiver exits the Scan: [F] (1 s), [LAMP], [MONI], [SQL],
and the Tuning control
PRIORITY SCAN
You may sometimes want to check your favorite
frequency activities while monitoring the A and
B-bands. In this case, use the Priority Scan function.
It checks the activities of Pr1 and Pr2 channels every
6 seconds, alternatively, using the B-band receiver. If
the transceiver detects a signal on Pr1 or Pr2, it
recalls the frequency to the B-band receiver.
Note: If you do not operate any control or key for 3 seconds after the
signal drops, the transceiver resumes Priority Scan.
Programming Priority channels
1 Press [VFO].
2 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
your desired priority channel frequency.
3 Select the mode and selective call functions if
necessary.
4 Press [F].
•
The memory channel number appears.
5 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
"Pr1".
6 Press [MR] to store the data on the priority
channel.
•
If you want to store a second priority channel,
repeat steps 1 ~ 6 and select "Pr2" in step 5.
Note: You can program any frequency available on the B-band as a
priority channel.
