30The VXA-300 allows you to scan automatically in theVFO 1 , Main Memory, “Book” Memory, or WeatherChannel 2 modes. It pauses on signals encountered, so youcan talk to the station(s) on that frequency, if you like.1: In the VFO mode, the automatic scanner is only availablein the COM band (118.000 ~ 136.975 MHz);when the scanner reaches the uppermost frequency inthe COM band, it will revert to the bottom end of theCOM band and repeat the scanning process until youcancel the scanning process.2: USA version only.If you wish to scan in the NAV band (108.000 ~ 117.975MHz), you can do so manually, as described at the right.Scanning operation is basically the same in each of theabove modes.Press and hold in the[SCAN (DW)] key for 2seconds to start the automaticscanner upward(toward a higher frequencyor a higher channelnumber).When the scanner encounters a signal, scanning pausesand the radio remains on that channel until one sec-SCANNING OPERATIONond after the signal disappears, after which scanningwill resume. While the scanner remains paused on a frequency, thedecimal point of the frequency display blinks. The displaywill be illuminated unless the Scan Lamp Featureis turned off. To change the scan direction,turn the DIALselector knob one clickin the opposite direction. To stop the automaticscanner, press the PTTswitch or the VOLUMEknob momentarily. You may also just press the [SCAN(DW)] key.The VXA-300’s automatic scanner is not operational inthe NAV band (108.000 ~ 117.975 MHz), because the NAVstations (ILS, etc.) transmit constantly (thereby causingthe scanner to stop repeatedly). However, you can scanmanually in the NAV band, per the following procedure:Press and hold the [SCAN (DW)] key to start themanual scanner. Scanning will continue as long as thekey is depressed.Release the [SCAN (DW)] key to stop the manualscanner immediately.VXA-300 PILOT III OPERATING MANUAL
Note: When scanning upward in frequency, when the frequencyreaches the COM Band (118.000 ~ 136.975 MHz)via manual scanning, the VXA-300 will switch to the automaticscanner mode.Channel-Skip ScanningContinuous-carrier stations like ATIS (Automatic TerminalInformation Service) or Weather Broadcast stationsinhibit scanner operation. Since these stations are alwaysactive, the scanner will be halted repeatedly on their channels.Such channels can be set to be “skipped” duringMemory scanning (MR, Book or WX modes), if you like,so as not to interfere with automatic channel scanning: Recall the Memory Channel to be skipped during scanning. Press the [F] key momentarily,then press the[9 (SKIP)].The “ ” icon willappear at the upper rightof the channel number,indicating that the channelis to be ignored duringscanning. You can also designate a channelto be skipped while scan-VXA-300 PILOT III OPERATING MANUALSCANNING OPERATIONning. When the receiver is halted on a channel thatyou wish to skip, press and hold the [SCAN (DW)]key for 2 seconds (the “ ” icon will appear nextto the channel to be skipped).Later, to re-enable the memory channel for scanning,repeat the first two steps. The “ ” icon will disappearby the channel you have just re-enabled.Note: A memory set to be “skipped” is still accessible formanual memory selection using the DIAL selector knob.31
