If the Menu button does not launch you back into the
Scanning Mode menu, you’ve missed the Undo
deadline. Wait approximately 10 seconds for the
selection process to clear the radio, then use the Menu
buttons to re-enter the Priority Scan menu.
 Duration of Scanning Mode Selections
Scanning Mode selections survive Power Off. At
startup, your radio will default to the scanning mode of
your last use. Any selection you make during your shift
will remain in effect until you make a new selection
from the Scan Mode menu.
Changing the Active Channel
If your reception is poor or you are repeatedly denied
channel access, you can manually change the radio to a
different channel.
 How to Change the Active Channel
1.) Press either Menu button until the Channel
Change Menu appears. The indicator MON lets
you know you’re in the menu. The Display panel
shows the currently selected active Channel.
2.) Press either Select button once or repeatedly to
display alternate channel choices. Stop when you
see a channel you like.
3.) No further action required. Wait while the radio
synchronizes with the new channel.
4.) When synchronization is complete, the display
panel reveals the familiar Active Connection
indicator : in the bottom left corner.
