How to Pause/Stop Carrier Scan

[WRZB493]

Title - I like the idea of carrier scan, but when I identify a channel I want to land on, how do I stop the scan? I have a TidRadio TD-H5 (compares to Radioddity GM-30). Google, Bing, and the manual have failed me here.

Thanks in advance.

Don't know about that exact model but every radio I own will stop a scan as soon as you press the PTT (transmit switch).

You could try pressing the 'Scan' button on your radio (usually labeled as 'SCAN' or a similar indicator) to halt the scanning. If that doesn't work, you might need to hold down the button for a few seconds. Additionally, some radio devices allow you to stop the scanning by pressing the PTT (Push-To-Talk) button on the radio again.

If the radio supports it I would program it to automatically stop when it detects a signal and not to resume until you click on scan.

I looked at the manual and on page 12 it indicates that it does support this. No indication on how to stop scan regularly though. I don't have this radio but all the HT's I have pressing any button other than the directional buttons stops the scanning.
