Automatic Lamp Illumination on Scan Stop
The
FT-252
will automatically illuminate the LCD/Keypad Lamp whenever the scan-
ner stops on a signal; this allows you to see the frequency of the incoming signal better
at night. Note that this will, of course, increase the battery consumption, so be sure to
switch it off during the day (the default condition for this feature is “ON”).

FT-252
will automatically “beep” when a band edge is encountered during scan-

while tuning using the DIAL knob.
