I use mt FT60 as a scanner.
Using RT Systems programming software, I entered:
-- all 2-meter repeater freqs
-- all 432 repeater freqs
-- local repeater freqs
-- simplex freqs
-- local public service freqs (I'm an EMT with local volunteer rescue squad)
-- SO-50
-- A0-91
-- AO-92
Then, I assigned each of these groups to a separate bank.? When I want to listen to the local public service traffic, I set the FT-60 on Bank 5 and start scanning.? When I want to work AO-91, go to Bank 7, etc., etc.
As a scanner it works fine -- audio is a bit low if I'm using it in a big room or noisy area.
