All Channels Scan Issue ================================================ You will need to perform All Channels Scan only if the default autoscan is unable to completely memorize all channels (i.e., if the frequencies of certain channels are not listed in the default frequency table). When you perform All Channels Scan, frequencies starting from 50 MHz to 800 MHz which correspond to active channels will be memorized. Each will be assigned to a channel number, starting from channel number 1 and onwards. If you need to change channel up/down sequence, you can use channel group to reorganize it and merge your favorite channnel in a group. Perform this function will take you about 3 to 5 minutes, please be patient. ========================================== 2. Time Shift Issue ========================================== To run Time Shift functions, you need a sound card which can support full-duplex operation to capture and playback sound simultaneously.
