  1. Turn SQ counterclockwise, but not off.
  2. Press MEMORY. Each time you press this button, the radio scans to the next channel in numerical order (i.e., channel 1, channel 2, etc.). If you have not assigned frequencies to all five channels, the radio scans only those channels that have been assigned a frequency.

TO MANUALLY SCAN MEMORY:

To automatically scan memory:
  1. Press MANUAL.
  2. Press MEMORY once.
  3. Turn SO clockwise until the transceiver beings to scan the channels automatically. The frequency display will change and the channel LEDs will light briefly as each saved frequency is scanned. The Ranger always scans the frequencies saved in memory in numerical order according to the channel number (i.e., channel 1, channel 2, etc.).
  4. To stop automatic scanning, turn SO counterclockwise or press MANUAL.

TO AUTOMATICALLY SCAN MEMORY:

Cancel a Frequency Saved in Memory:

If you have saved a frequency and assigned it to a specific channel, you also can cancel it. Once canceled, it is no longer saved in the transceiver's memory. To cancel a channel:

  1. Press MANUAL.
  2. Manually scan to the frequency you want to cancel using the MEMORY button.
  3. Press CANCEL.

NOTE: To cancel everything you have saved in memory, turn the RESET control off and back on again.

TO CANCEL A FREQUENCY SAVED IN MEMORY

Change a Channel Frequency:

You can change the frequency assigned to any channel by simply overwriting the previous frequency. Follow the same steps described above under storing a Frequency in Memory. The channel will then be assigned the new frequency instead of the old one.

Split Frequency Operation

You can transmit and receive on different frequencies and preset the frequencies you want to use. Once set, the Ranger automatically goes to the transmit frequency when the PTT button is pressed. When the PTT button is released, the transceiver goes to the receive frequency.

Preset the Receive and Transmit Frequencies:

  1. Press MANUAL.
  2. Make sure that the SPLIT, SPLIT PRG, and + buttons are out.
  3. Enter the receive frequency using the momentary switches. Each switch corresponds to the LED display above it. Press the upper switch to increase the displayed number; press the lower switch to decrease the number.
  4. Push the SPLIT PRG button in. The frequency display will change to all zeros (0).

NOTE 
If you have previously programmed split frequency operation, the last split you entered will be displayed (instead of zeros) when you press SPLIT PRG.

  1. Enter the difference between the receive and transmit frequencies using the momentary switches on the front panel. For example, if the transmit frequency will be 1.5 MHz higher or lower than the receive frequency, enter 1.500.0.
