Priority Scanning
Your UBC144XL T has fixed Priority Channel, Channel I. Priority Scan works like
a "dual watch" function. When you activate Priority Scan mode, the scanner starts
"sampling," or keeping track of the activity on Channel 1 while listening to other
channels.
Every 2 seconds, the scanner checks Channel 1 for activity. If a signal is present,
Channel 1 will be monitored until the transmission ends, and a constant "P" appears
on the channel display. When the signal stops for more than 2 seconds, normal
operation resumes.
