Scanning Setup
The com setup page also provides for scanning setup.
The GPSCOM 170 scans, which means it automatically
listens to a number of channels in rapid succession, hes-
itates on an active channel until the conversation stops,
and then moves on to the next channel.
The GPSCOM 170 can be programmed to scan all
channels for the band you have selected, or scan a bank
of memory channels.
To select a scanning type:
1. On the com setup page, highlight ‘SCAN’ field and
press

or ‘ALL CHANNELS’.
3. Press

to confirm the selection.
4. Press
S
to activate the scanning.
5. Press
S
or PTT to stop scanning.
Scanning Modes
The GPSCOM 170 has two scanning modes: normal
and priority.

all channels/memory channels in sequence. Channel 16 is

channels in sequence while constantly monitoring chan-
nel 16. When a signal is detected on channel 16, the unit
pauses on channel 16 until the signal disappears. When a
signal is detected on a channel other than 16, channel 16
will be monitored every 2 seconds.
To select priority scan:
