To select the Priority Channel Scan Time, press the MODE button until the
Priority Channel Scan Time icon and current setting flashes. Use the UP
or DOWN button to change the priority channel scan time. Set the scan time
to '1' for most frequent and '5' for least frequent. Press the PTT or MODE

the radio to scan the priority channel alternately with the other channels, e.g.
channel 1, priority channel, channel 2, priority channel etc.
Dual Watch Mode
Dual Watch mode allows you to monitor two channels; a primary channel
and the dual watch channel. When a signal is received on either channel the
unit will pause for 5 seconds before resuming the dual watch.
To activate the dual watch mode, first select a radio channel (see

channels and the dual watch icon will appear.
To deactivate the dual watch press the SCAN button. If you press the PTT
button whilst receiving a signal in Dual Watch Mode the radio will transmit on
the currently displayed channel. If you press the PTT button when no signal
is present the radio will transmit on the primary channel.
