Vote Scan
Vote Scan provides you with wide area coverage in areas
where there are multiple base stations transmitting identical
information on different analog channels.
Your radio scans analog channels of multiple base stations
and performs a voting process to select the strongest
received signal. Once that is established, your radio
receives transmissions from that base station.
During a vote scan, the yellow LED blinks.
Follow the same procedures as Responding to
Transmissions During Scanning on page
46, to respond to
a transmission during a vote scan.
