Programming Talk Group D/Scan Lists
Each bank of your UBCT9 can be a trunk tracking bank and it can be a conventional
scanning bank. When you designate a bank as a trunking bank, your scanner sets up 5
Scan Lists, which are simply lists used to store your favourite Talk Group IDs. Each list can
contain up to 10 IDs, so you can store a total of 50 IDs for each trunk tracking bank. (250
IDs if you use all the banks as trunking banks!)
Scan Lists help you organize the trunking system users into categories. For example, you
might use List#1 for police IDs, List#2 for fire department IDs, List#3 for emergency
medical service IDs, etc. Once IDs are stored in lists, you can scan them as you scan
conventional frequencies and you can lockout any one (up to 4) of the 5 Scan Lists by
pressing the corresponding numeric key. When an ID is active, the Scan List number will
appear on the display. You can program your Scan Lists either manually or during Trunking
Search mode.
