Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way
communications (listed below) do not transmit continuously.
The BC350C scans programmed channels at the rate of up to
100 channels per second until it locates an active frequency.
When scanning stops on an active frequency, it remains on
that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the
transmission ends, the scanner stays on the channel for 2
more seconds, waiting for another transmission. If no
response is detected, the scanning cycle resumes until
anoth-er transmission is received.
