Well its been awhile since I played with an A4 so I may be wrong here but the "SEL" button toggles you through the non-pri, 2nd pri, pri and not in the list at all during the program sequence (also depends on how the rss is setup for user programmable scan). The A4 has no DEL button if I remember correctly as well so no nuisance delete, dont recall if you can program a button as DEL or not.

If you are programming the scan on the fly the SEL button is all you need. SEL will scroll through Scan, 2nd Pri, 1st Pri, No Scan. I don't remember the exact LED configurations are but I think an amber light will tell you it's in the scan list, flashing red is 2nd Pri, and solid red is 1st Pri.
