I actually asked at the Orlando MTUG last year when the 1.5 was formally introduced as I wanted to migrate my 1 to 1.5's
I asked the guy that did the subscriber presentation and that was his answer.

If you use full spectrum scan you dont need to add any frequencies as the radio will look for a valid control channel and system id and work it out for itself.
