Subject: Azden PCS-4000 Busy /Scan Mode Modification
The following is from LTC Albert Beutler (ZIGZAG 19). He has
developed a modification that will convert the scan mode to what
he calls a more conventional arrangement. His modification is as
follows:
"The Busy/Scan mode of the Azden PCS-4000 scans until a
signal is received, pauses for about five seconds, and then
resumes scanning unless you are quick enough to hit one of the
keypad buttons to stop the scanning. It is then necessary to
manually restart the scanning. This modification converts the
Busy Scan Mode to the more conventional arrangement in which the
radio scans until a signal is received, stops scanning as long
as the signal is present, and then resumes scanning about five
seconds after loss of signal.
