Does anyone know how can I create an Airband playlist that SDRTrunk will be able to scan ?

AFAIK, SDRTrunk cannot scan.
You can set specific frequencies in advance that are covered by your dongle/s' spectrum without scanning them. They can be recorded all at once and played/archived by Rdio-Scanner, for example.
If you want a scanner function that runs from frequency or channel X to frequency or channel Y, then FMP24 from DSDPlus Fastlane (with an RTL-SDR Blog dongle), can do that with a Scanlist. Also SDRSharp with the Frequency Scanner plug-in can also achieve that.
Cycle through conventional channels, sure. OP will need to create a new AM conventional object via the playlist editor for each individual frequency.
- There's no way to do a full band scan in SDRTrunk. A scanner is the preferred tool to use for this
- OP will need more than one dongle if coverage of the entire 118-136MHz spectrum is needed. Again only individual frequencies can be programmed in
It's easier on the ears if you set listen to off, and record to on, and use rdio scanner or Trunking Recorder for playback. I prefer to utilize SDRTrunk because Sdr# or DSDplus/FMPX scanner are limited to receiving one comm at a time. With SDRT and a HackRf, I can cover anything programmed in (118-136) and can record multiple programmed tg's/frequencies simultaneously.
To scan a band (range of freqs) I believe SDR@ with a plug in is the only way when using dongles. Sdrt and DSDPlus/FMPx don't scan ranges and need to have each freq programmed in.

if SDRTrunk can't do it, I'll try SDR# with frequency scanner plugin.
Thank you guys.
Thank you guys.
If your looking for something to set 118 to 137 and have it scan and stop on anything in between, sdr# with the correct plug in is the way to go. If you have one dongle and want to scan programmed freqs and have it scan those, sdr# with the correct plugin or DSDPlus with fmp24 scanlist works good. Both mentioned can be done with one dongle regardless of how much it covers.
Sdrtrunk will, while not a true scan, it will cover the dongles bandwidth and can stop on anything that’s programmed in. A hackrf covers close to 20 meg so I added everything of interest from 118 to 136 and it will record and play back anything it sees that’s programmed in. The same can be done with 2 Airspy r2 or 3 Airspy mini dongles. It could also be done with standard 2.4 dongles but you would need about 10 of them. Anything of interest would need to be programmed in as channels with am decoder and an alias list set up.
