Looking for some assistance: my patrol car is equipped with a Motorola XTL2500 radio and has a StarCom21 APCO-25 digital trunked system programmed within the radio with several talk groups.
If possible, I would like some assistance with the “scan” feature. I have programmed the local police, Sheriff’s car-car, Illinois State Police, and the ISPERN talk groups in a scan list. When I activate the scan feature, the radio will scan the proper talk groups; however the radio will not automatically revert to the set priority channel which I have the Sheriff’s Office as the priority channel.
Example: if the radio has the Sheriff’s Office set as a priority channel and I am in the scan mode, when another channel becomes active and the Sheriff’s Office also receives a radio transmission my radio will not switch back to the Sheriff’s Office channel until the active channel has completed with the radio transmission as a result I miss a portion of the radio transmission upon the Sheriff’s Office channel which could result in a delay in a response time to a call.
Is there a way to fix the scan function so that the radio immediately returns to the channel which I have set as a priority channel?
Thank you..
