While in scanning, the radio checks every channel in the scan list and stops on which a signal is detected until that signal disappears. If interval between signal disappearing and continuing scanning has been preset, the radio will remain on that channel.   b) Priority Scan:         One channel in the scan list can be set as the priority channel, which enables it to have the highest priority during scanning. The radio will scan a non-priority channel firstly, then the priority channel, and then the next non-priority channel, and then the priority channel again, and the scan goes on like this. If the priority channel and the “lookback time” have been set for the scan list, when the radio is receiving signals on a non-priority channel, and the scanning is paused, the radio will check the priority channel at the preset intervals. If there are signals in the priority channel, it will stay at the priority channel; if there is no signal, it will return to the original channel. c) The revert channel (Tx channel) during the scan can be designated by the dealer. There are following options available: Selected Channel: When pressing the PTT button, the radio will transmit from the first channel of the scan list.
Selected Channel + Currently Working Channel: When pressing the PTT button during scanning, the radio will always transmit from the first channel in the scan list.
