I assigned my scan hit storage into Quick Key 99. I can't figure out how to toggle this "System" on and off when scanning. I purchased the "Easier to Read' manual and have read the manufacturer's manual as well and can't figure out how to toggle systems on an off if they have a number of 10-99. So my system with a quick key of 21 is also one I can't toggle on and off from scanning, at least not using the number keys. I think I just have to enter program a system and lock or unlock those, but for some reason I can't get the scanner to ignore my stored close call hits while scanning. The number display show "9" flashing on and off, but when I just hit 9 I toggle quick key system "9" on and off. I have no succes trying to toggle "99" on the scanner and I can't seem to figure out how to lock out the Close Call Hit Storage scan at all. Can anyone help me out here?
Without being able to do this the scanner is of limited use, because it takes so much time to scan the close call hits that are stored. I want to go back to scan the hits at times, so I don't want to eliminate the quick key and I don't want to delete the system. I can't go on to learn about the other methods of operating this radio until I get this one solved. I can find the instructions for toggling systems with my quick call number assignments, but it only deals with quick calls 1-9 and not 10-99. The "Easier to Read" manual is possibly a tiny bit easier to read than Uniden's, but the difference is almost imperceptible. The best way to write a manual is to get a group of people in a room, let them use a product, then when they have questions, write them down and make sure the manual answers those questions. An experienced scanner user or a computer tech will never be able to write any effective manual without at least some type of this effort.
