In an attempt to unlock one group in my 996XT and lock another (in the same system), I accidentally managed to lock them both out. Now, the scanner won't allow me to use the quick key to activate it scanning at all. It's as if it's not even programmed into my scanner. In all my 35 years of using Bearcat scanners, I don't remember ever doing this?

Anyone know how I can reverse this short of deleted that system and reprogramming it into the scanner?

THX,

Note: 'Temporary Lockout' means unlocked the next time you cycle power the group will be unlocked. Or, use MENU to drill down to the group options and lock/unlock it there. See 'Edit Group Options'.
