Multiple Channel Monitoring
Before you can monitor multiple channels, you must turn off ATIS (Automatic Transmitter Identification System).
You can monitor priority channels and the currently selected channel for broadcasting activity. Channel 16 is the first-priority channel on your radio. Channel 9 is the default second-priority channel. You can program a different channel as your second-priority channel (Selecting a Different Second-Priority Channel).
NOTE:
After responding to a call or transmitting on the currently selected channel, you must repeat the steps to resume monitoring multiple channels.
