Just bought a RadioShack Pro 651 today and I proceeded to program the scanner with the keypad, just as I did with the GRE PSR-500 that I owned previously and everything was going ok with the programming of multiple P25 systems, until I went to program a trunked Motorola 800 MHz analog system in a new unused bank when I got an HEAP ERROR 258C25 : 2593 and the scanner locked up.
Once I turned the scanner off, then back on again, every time I would select a programed bank to scan, I would get an error message (can't remember the error) and the scanner would not respond to any commands. So I did a reset pressing 01 enter, 02 enter after turning the radio on, and did a factory rest.
I programmed the scanner with all digital P25 systems as before, with scan list were responding to each correct system for that bank, then I proceed to program the trunked Motorola 800 MHz analog system and the scanner then proceeded to show every programmed bank as that system. It was as if, I programmed multiple banks with the same system, which I didn't.
I proceeded to do a factory reset again, and reprogramed two P25 systems into the scanner in which all worked ok. I then programed in one trunked Motorola 800 MHz analog system and again, the same issue.
In the years that I previously owned a GRE PSR-500, and the RadioShack mobile version, I programmed the scanners hundreds of times using the keypad and never encountered any problems. The analog system in question is the Montgomery County, OH trunked system. Frequencies 852.6500 853.2000 853.5750 853.8500.
I plan on taking the scanner back to the RadioShack store tomorrow and exchanging it for another Pro 651 as I believe this unit is defected, unless someone knows what the problem is?

Update: Now the scanner is doing the same thing, once you program more than one P25 system after doing a factory reset.

. You mis-programmed it.
