SCAN LISTS
When you program trunked frequen-
cies into a bank (see “Programming
Trunked Frequencies” on Page 26),
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 (500 IDs if you use
all banks as trunking banks!).
Scan lists help you organize trunking
system users into categories. For ex-
ample, 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 pro-
gram IDs into scan lists manually, dur-
ing a search, or automatically.
