Unication G 3 PPS question.

[N1SQB]

I have all my conventional channels in 2 zones exactly the way I want them. I am getting great reception so I know everything's programmed correctly. The one thing I cannot figure out in the PPS is how to set up a scan list. Can someone point me in the right direction? I cannot find any help with this on the software itself.

Hey Manny, I hope you are enjoying the G3 over the G1.
You are half way there with the scan list.

The first step is to define every single frequency you want into your scan list as it's own Zone/Key entry.
Then, setup a new zone/key and refer to the prior defined single channels as your scan list.

Ex:
Zone 1 = NOAA
Ch1 - NOAA 1, Ch 2 NOAA 2, ..... CH 7 - NOAA 7.
Then, In Zone 1 Channel 8, set that for Normal Scan and then pick Z1/K1, Z1/K2, Z1/K3....Z1/K7 as the scan list entries.

I don't know if the G4/G5 PPS is the same that you use for the G3, but here's what it looks like. Basically, you choose knob positions to scan. Choose the receiving mode, "Priority Scan" or "Normal Scan".
Hopefully, that will get you going in the right direction.

Happy Scanning!

BINGO! That was it! I had my channels set to "selective call" instead of normal scan. Thank you very very much.
