I love my BC796Ds, and I have a couple of suggestions for you...
In order to switch between ID Scan/List and Bank displays, press the . (dot) button, next to the "0" button. ID Scan/List shows which talkgroups banks are active. Bank display mode shows which Banks are active.
I'd also recommend trying to zero in on just one
tower, but remember that each
site, i.e., Metro, South, etc., are made up of several or more towers. To do this, you find the approximate location of your monitoring site on the RR site map (here, I'm using the South Simulcast map), then point a directional antenna (like a yagi) directly at the tower to isolate your scanner's reception to that one tower. You might have to experiment a bit to select the best tower for you.

Hope that makes sense--English isn't my first language!
Good luck!
