Owner`s manual
Press the PRI button to start or stop priority scanning. Priority scan operation 
occurs only during receive operation. Priority scan operation is indicated on the 
display by the PR annunciator and either the flashing SCN annunciator 
(alphanumeric mode) or two flashing bars (numeric mode). 
To make the current channel the fixed priority channel, press the PRI button and 
hold it for 1 second or more. A beep sounds and the PR annunciator appears 
when the priority channel change is executed. This occurs in priority scan 
modes B, C, and D, but not A. 
The EMH radio can be programmed with one of four priority scan modes: 
A, B, C, and D. 
PRIORITY MODE A 
The channel selected with the Channel Select knob becomes the priority 
channel as well. When scanning with the PRI button on, the receiver checks 
the priority channel for activity. If activity is detected by scanning and the 
receiver stops on a channel other than the priority channel, the receiver 
continues to check the priority channel for activity. If, in this condition, activity 
is detected on the priority channel, the radio receives the priority channel 
activity for the duration of the transmission, then returns to scanning operation. 
The yellow Priority Indicator glows during the priority reception. The radio 
transmits on the channel selected with the Channel Select knob.
