47FT-2900R OPERATING MANUAL
PREFERENTIAL MEMORY SCAN
The FT-2900R also allows you to set up a “Preferential Scan List” of channels which you
can “flag” within the memory system. These channels are designated by a blinking “SKIP”
icon when you have selected them, one by one, for the Preferential Scan List.
When you initiate memory scanning, beginning on a channel with the Blinking “SKIP”
icon appended, only those channels bearing the Blinking “SKIP” icon will be scanned. If
you initiate scanning on a channel which does not have the Blinking “SKIP” icon ap-
pended, you will scan all channels including those with the Blinking “SKIP” icon ap-
pended.
Here is the procedure for setting up and using the Preferential Scan List:
1. Set the radio to the Memory Recall mode by pressing the
[
