[. . . ] It will halt on signals encountered, so you can talk to the station(s) on that frequency, if you like. Before you begin, take a moment to select the way in which you would like the scanner to resume scanning after it halts on a signal. Setting the Scan-Resume Technique Three options for the Scan-Resume mode are available: BUSY: In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters. Two seconds after the carrier has dropped because the other station(s) ceased transmission, the scanner will resume. TIME: In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters, and will hold there for five seconds. If you do not take action to disable the scanner within five seconds, the scanner will resume even if the stations are still active. It will not restart automatically; rotate the DIAL knob to re-initiate scanning if you wish to resume. Press and hold in the [BAND(SET)] key for 1/2 second to enter the Set mode. Press the [BAND(SET)] key momentarily, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired scan-resume mode. Press the [BAND(SET)] key momentarily to save the new setting, then press and hold in the [BAND(SET)] key for 1/2 second to exit to normal operation. Note: The default condition for this Menu Item is "BUSY. " 40 FT-7800R OPERATING MANUAL SCANNING VFO SCANNING This mode allows you to scan the entire current operating band. Press and hold in the [SCAN(SEL)] key for 1/2 second, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the bandwidth for the VFO scanner. Available selections are ±1 MHz, ±2 MHz, ±5 MHz, ALL, PMS-X, and BAND. ALL: The scanner will sweep all frequencies between 108 - 520 MHz and 700 -999. 990 MHz. PMS-X: The scanner will sweep frequencies within the currently-selected PMS frequency pair (X is PMS memory channel number). The "P-XX" indication will appear on the display if you engage PMS scanning, while the "P SC" indication will appear on the display when other scanning modes are engaged. If and when the scanner encounters a signal strong enough to open the squelch, the scanner will halt temporarily; the decimal point of the frequency display will blink during this "Pause" condition. The scanner will then resume according to the Scan-Resume mode selected in the previous section. To cancel scanning, press the [SCAN(SEL)] key momentarily again (or press the microphone's PTT key). 1) When you start scanning, the FT-7800R will be changing frequency in the upward direction. If you want to change direction of the scan while it is underway, rotate the DIAL knob one click in the opposite direction (in this case, one click counterclockwise). You'll see the scanner turn around and change frequency downward!2) Pressing and holding in the microphone's [UP] or [DWN] key will cause the scanner to sweep frequencies only on the current band. [. . . ] Menu #38 [SCN MD] Function: Selects the Memory Scan channel-selection mode. Available Values: MEM/ONLY Default: MEM MEM: The scanner will "skip" the flagged channels during scanning. ONLY: The scanner will only scan channels that are flagged (Preferential Scan List). Available Values: 0. 00 - 99. 95 MHz (50 kHz step) Default: Depends on the band of operation. FT-7800R OPERATING MANUAL 73 MENU ("SET") MODE Menu #40 [SKIP] Function: Selects what action will happen on a "flagged" Memory Channel Available Values: OFF/SKIP/ONLY Default: OFF OFF: All memory channels will be scanned (the "flag" will be ignored).
