Which scanlist the radio scans depends on what channel you're selected on when you put the radio on scan. Each channel has a drop-down selection you make in the software to decide what scanlist the memory channel is associated with. When you select on that channel when you're using the radio, the scanlist you chose in that drop-down list is the scanlist that will be scanned. There's no way to manually tell the radio which scanlist you want to scan.

If you want to scan a different scanlist, you'll need to select on a different channel that you associated with a different scanlist in the software.

For example, I have all 22 FRS frequencies programmed into 2 different zones. All 22 frequencies are associated with the same scanlist. No matter which one of those 22 memory channels I select on, if I put the radio on scan, the radio's gonna scan those same 22 memory channels in that same scan list.

If I want to scan something else, then I'd have to select on something else, such as a DMR frequency. Once I'm on that DMR frequency, if I put the radio on scan, the radio will scan whatever scanlist I chose from the drop-down in the software when programming that DMR memory channel.

Thanks Homeboys!

I was having a difficult time understanding this logistically. Makes sense, now.
