40 FT-2800M OPERATING MANUAL
The Smart Search feature allows you to load frequencies automatically according to where
activity is encountered by your radio. When Smart Search is engaged, the transceiver will
search above and below your current frequency, storing active frequencies as it goes (with-
out stopping on them even momentarily); these frequencies are stored into a special Smart
Search memory band, consisting of 31 memories (15 above the current frequency, 15 below
the current frequency, plus the current frequency itself).
Two basic operating modes for Smart Search are available:
SINGLE: In this mode, the transceiver will sweep the current band once in each direction
starting on the current frequency. All channels where activity is present will be
loaded into the Smart Search memories; whether or not all 31 memories are filled,
the search will stop after one sweep in each direction.
CONT: In this mode, the transceiver will make one pass in each direction as with One-Shot
searching; if all 31 channels are not filled after the first sweep, however, the radio
will continue sweeping until they are all filled.
Setting the Smart Search Mode
1. Press and hold in the
[
MHz
(

)]
key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to
select “30 S SRCH.”
2. Press the
[

key, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired Smart Search
mode (see above).
3. Press and hold in the
[

key for one second to save the new setting and exit to
normal operation.
Storing Smart Search Memories
1. Set the radio to the VFO mode. Be sure that you have the Squelch adjusted properly (so
that band noise is quieted).
2. Press the Microphone’s
[
P2
]
key to enter the Smart Search mode. The “S.S” icon will
appear at the bottom left corner of the display.
3. Press the Microphone’s
[
A
]
key to begin Smart Search scanning.
4. As active channels are detected, they will automatically be stored into the Smart Search
memory bank without causing the sweep to halt.
5. Depending on the mode you set for Smart Search operation (“SINGLE” or “CONT”), the
Smart Search scan will eventually terminate, and the LCD will revert to Smart Search
Memory Channel “00.”
6. To recall the Smart Search memories, just rotate the DIAL knob to choose from among
the Smart Search memories.
7. To return to normal operation, press the
[
D/MR
(
MW
)]
key.
Smart Search is a great tool when visiting a city for the first time. You don’t need
to spend hours looking up repeater frequencies from a reference guidebook…just
ask your FT-2800M where the action is!
