Scan Lists
Each bank of your
BC895XLT
can be a trunk tracking bank, or it can be a conventional scanning
bank. When you designate a bank as a trunking bank, your scanner sets up 5 Scan Lists (A –E),
which are simply lists used to store your favorite IDs. Each list can contain up to 10 IDs, so you can
store a total of 50 IDs for each trunk tracking bank (500 if you use all banks as trunking banks!).
Scan Lists help you organize the trunking system users into categories. For example, you might use
List A for police IDs, List B for fire department IDs, List C for emergency medical service IDs, etc.
Once IDs are stored in lists, you can scan them like you scan conventional frequencies. You can
program your scan lists either manually or during trunking search mode.
You can use the VFO Tuner to scroll through the IDs in your scan lists.
