Bear with me as I'm a fairly new owner of BC396XT. I have it programmed with a mix of conventional and trunked systems. My issue is that it takes forever to scan through the programmed channels/systems.
Specifically I have a Federal system set up which contains about 200 freqs. Actually 100 or so are in a group that is locked out so it should only be scanning about 100 of them.
If you watch the display on the scanner you'll see it zip through the other conventional and trunked systems very rapidly, but then it sits on this federal system for probably 20-30 seconds before moving on to the next system.
I program the radio with FreeScan and would be happy to email my current file to anyone willing to take a look at how it's programmed. I'd appreciate any useful advice on how I can speed up the scanning of the Federal group.
Thanks in advance.
Doug
