Need help with BC250D

[KD4JAF]

Just recieved this radio yesterday. I spent most of the day loading frequencies into the memory banks. I have 800 Mhz trunking in bank 1, I have Smartzone ( UHF ) in bank 2 and I have Type II 800 in bank 3. My question is, how the heck ( and this may sound stupid ) do I scan from bank to bank. Trust me I have been through the manual half a dozen times. Everytime I turn the scanner on it goes directly to bank 1. If I choose bank 2 it inverts back to bank 1...any help would be much appreciated and thank you in advance.

Press the decimal ( . ) key while scanning until your screen says:

"Bank 1234567890" and not " List 1234567890"

In bank mode is where you want to choose the banks you want on.

If you want banks 1 2, and 3 on press the # you want on and that # will show in the screen.
If the banks you want on are already on and its still not working you might want to check your settings bank settings.

If you need more help feel free to e-mail, or Yahoo IM me and I can help you the best I can, just click the YIM button below my post . I am usually invisible so just leave a message anyway and if im there I will respond.

Just had an idea. D/L ARC250 and upload the scanner to your computer save the file and email me the file or post it here and I will look it over and make sure all looks good.
