speading up my 396

[patrolman123]

I posted this under another thread. Wanted to see if anyone else had any other thoughts.
Will locking out all the freqs for a trunked system in my 396 spead up the scanner without affecting what I hear. Or should I just program in the control channel

I programmed the control channels only, and seems to work fine.
The idea is that the scanner looks for a control channel signal from the frequencies, and stops on the first CC, so anything after that it doesn't check. so you can actually program all the CC first, than all the extra frequencies last, and thats the same as locking the non CC out.

No change in speed, and it will prevent you from hearing the system if you lock out the control channel.
