Hello all. I am trying to get my Maxtrac 300 to user scan more then the first 16 channels. I only have 10 in the list, but it wont accept any channel over 16 into the list. Also applies if I have the regular scan list programmed to scan.... any ideas???

I know that I have had this problem before with hacked 16 channel rigs that were made in 32 channel radios. In this case, it will only let you scan modes 1-16.

I dont have RSS - My friend who works at a dealer programmed it for me. as far as i know it is a legit 32 channel radio. When he programmed it, it accepted 19 channels into scan with no problem. When I tried it at home, it doesnt work. I even tried to enable them as a user scan list, but it wont let me. Any ideas??
Thanks
