STEP 3:
Programming ID Scan Lists Manually

Scan Lists

Each bank of your BC250D 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 10 Scan
Lists, which are simply lists used to store your favorite Talk
Group IDs. Each list can contain up to 10 IDs, so you can
store a total of 100 IDs for each trunk tracking bank. (1000 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 like you scan conventional frequencies and you can
lockout any one (up to 9) of the 10 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.
Check the web site www.bearcat1.com/free.htm for a
complete list of talkgroups for your area that you can program
into your Scan Lists.
