Hello-
I am a new user of a VX-924 portable. Coming from using strickly Motorola (ht1250 and mt2000), I am pretty pleased with the radio. The one thing I can't figure out is scanning. Using the Motorola radios, I would set it up so my selected channel is the prioity channel. I wouldn't have to take the radio out of scan to change the priority/transmit channel. I am using the "Follow Me" scan on the 924, but I am having issues. A couple of times (only had the radio for 12 hours) I have heard traffic on the selected priority channel from another radio and the 924 would stay on another acive channel. Also, I am finding off pl traffic is also stopping the scan from time to time. Am I missing something? Is there a better way of setting this up? Basically, I won't my selected channel to be the priority and transmit channel. I am planning on using this radio for fire fighting and don't want to miss any important transmissions.
Thanks.
