I have two conventional systems programmed in the SDS200. One is Andrews AFB and the other is VA Railroads. I have been thru the entire menu and all the frequencies are loaded. The FL are loaded correctly. However, when I use the QK to monitor either one, I get (Scan Mode, Nothing to Scan). I have tried everything.
All my other 18 TRS's work just perfectly.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

From the manual:
Scanning Checklist:
To ensure you do not get a “Nothing to Scan” message on the scanner:
1. You must enable at least one Favorites List or the Full Database in Select Lists to Monitor.
2. Favorites Lists or Systems, with Quick Keys assigned to them, must be enabled with quick
keys or through Manage Quick Key Status.
3. Service Types required for channels must be set to On.
4. You must set your location to an area that has channels to scan, or set one or more
Favorites Lists to not use Location Control.
Any Favorites List not assigned to a quick key, not Avoided, with channels within your current
location and range and set to On in Select – to Monitor will be scanned. Any System, Department,
or Site (or Quick Save System/Department) not assigned to a quick key and not Avoided, will be
scanned.

I know from time to time my SDS 100 turns off my scan lists on some systems. And locks out my quick Keyes for some of my favorite lists. There's a solution like the Doctor said. Make sure your scan lists of system scans. Your systems are on. Your conventional systems you are trying to hear are off under scan lists
