Interesting problem with the APX

[slobonmycob]

I have an apx that whenever it’s scanning, it switches automatically to whatever channel last transmits.

Any ideas how to fix this?

My scanner has the exact same problem! In fact, all of them do! They must share the same firmware as the APX...is all I can conclude.

Look for a version TAALK BACK SCAN or it may be called something else by Motorola.
What you are saying is TALK BACK SCAN

Motorola "Scan Talkback" is a two-way radio feature allowing users to respond to an active transmission while scanning, rather than being forced to use the default transmission channel. With this enabled, pressing PTT (Push-to-Talk) during a scan allows immediate communication back to the active channel, rather than disrupting the scan. [1, 2]
Key Aspects of Scan Talkback:

• Enabled: If PTT is pressed during a scanned call, you can immediately speak back to that group.
• Disabled: If PTT is pressed while scanning, the scanned call is terminated, and the radio reverts to the pre-programmed Home Channel.
• Purpose: Ensures uninterrupted, efficient communication within a programmed scan list without needing to manually switch
