Pro96 scanning help

[n8stone]

I have a weird issue. I have a few banks open and things scan good til it hit bank 4 then its stays on that bank and doesn't lock on anything and stays scanning bank 4. If I lock out bank 4 everything works fine. Any ideas what to do?

Yeah I have seen that. You have a frequency that in that bank the radio doesnt like.
I had the problem with the marine band, see -

Yeah what do you have in there? Way I found it was to manually program in every frequency in and note what frequency gets displayed, if it wasnt the same as I typed in that was one that it didnt like. At the that link I found two like that for the marine band.

When it stops on Bank 4 there should be a frequency displayed. Can't you just lock out that freq. or delete it?

In my case, no it did not display just locks on and stays stuck.

That's the weird thing. It didn't display one. It would scan bank 1,2,3 then hit 4 and wouldn't leave. If I locked out all other banks then it would say Bank 4 had all channels locked out. Which wasn't the case. Also if I turned the squelch all the way where it normally would stop it wouldn't. So I tried reentering everything and still had the issue so I ended up formatting the scanner and deleting that bank in arc96 then entered everything back it and it worked again. Not sure what the issue was. But then I had issues hearing my apco 25 rebanded city but found out my channels were messed up. So everything is in good working order again.

Thanks a bunch guys for your help!
