SCAN LISTS
When you program trunked frequencies into a bank
(see “Storing Trunked Frequencies” on Page 41), your
scanner sets up 5 scan lists into which you can store
your favorite IDs. Each list can contain up to 10 IDs, so
you can store a total of 50 IDs for each trunk tracking
bank (250 IDs if you use all banks as trunking banks!).
Scan lists help you organize trunking system users into
categories. For example, you might use List 1 for police
IDs, List 2 for fire department IDs, List 3 for emergency
medical service IDs, and so on. Once IDs are stored in
lists, you can scan them like you scan conventional
channels. You can program IDs into scan lists manual-
ly, during a search, or automatically.
Manually Storing IDs into Scan Lists
1. Select the trunking bank you want (see “Scanning
a Trunked Bank” on Page 43).
2. After the scanner begins trunk tracking, press
MAN
. A number showing the current scan list
appears steadily at the top of the display, and bars
which show activity in other banks appear.
3. Press
MAN
then repeatedly press s or t to select
the ID scan list location (shown at the top of the
display) where you want to store an ID. Then,
press
PROG
to select the ID you want to store.
4. Enter the Type II ID you want to store, then press
E
