Curious.
I am currently monitoring (1) conventional VHF simplex Group, (20) channels...
(1) Air band group, 15 channels.
(1) Trunked conventional with 10 freqs..and (1) P25 group with 8 Freq's.
I ID search the conventional trunk and ID Scan the P-25
I've noticed what seems to be IMO VERY slow overall scanning.
I tested this by transmitting with my 2M hand held while the 396 scanned.
I would unkey the PTT on my handheld and wait for scan to resume, then key up again.
The round trip until the scanner picked up my transmission required nearly 5 secs!
If I understand the trunked systems, only the CC needs to have activity for the scanner to stop.
Further; if I disable ALL trunking and only scan conventional VHF freqs, the scanner is very fast..I would expect this.
I can (see) the SQK blink on/off as they are scanned..and it appears to either be too fast for me to see it or the SQK is not being sampled often enough.
Any clues to why this happening?
Thanks in advance.
