9.21.1 Wide Area System Scanning
The P7200 and P5200 series radio can be programmed for Wide Area System Scan operation for roaming
across mobile systems. Upon the loss of the currently selected system's control channel, radios can be
programmed to automatically scan the control channels of other systems. If a new control channel is

algorithm
is enabled, as explained in the following sections). This priority scan timer is reset each time the PTT
button is pressed or when the call is received. If the priority system control channel is found, (or meets the
predefined criteria <ProScan>), the radio will automatically switch to the priority system.
