■ Scan
Scan is useful for monitoring signals on the transceiver
channels. When scanning, the transceiver checks for a
signal on each channel and only stops if a signal is present.
If the QT/DQT matches, the transceiver stops at the channel
and opens the squelch so you can listen to the call. If the
QT/DQT does not match, the call is ignored and scanning
continues.
■ Scan + Temporary Delete (Side 2 key default)
Press this key to start scanning the transceiver channels.
When Scan pauses at an undesired channel, you can
remove that channel from the scanning sequence by
pressing and holding this key for 3 seconds.
■ Scrambler
Press this key to activate (a single beep sounds) and
deactivate (a double beep sounds) the scrambler function of
the selected channel.
The Scrambler function allows you to hold a conversation in
complete privacy. When the Scrambler function is activated,
any other party that is listening to your channel will be
unable to understand your conversation.
