There's a neat little trick that works with the BCD396T, but not the BC246T.
When you're scanning a trunked system, press "Hold". Then type in a talkgroup, and press "Hold" again, and you're holding on that talkgroup.
Like I said, this works on the '396 but not the '246, and I wonder if this is a feature that could be added by a firmware upgrade to the '246.
BTW, this same trick does work on both radios for conventional frequencies.
