Saber III ("CN" radios)
Systems Saber III
ASTRO Digital Saber Model II, III
XTS 3000 Model II, III
XTS 2500 Model II, III
XTS 5000 Model II, III
HT1250
HT1550-XLS

I don't see how many channels that can be scanned from the above post. I seem to recall that there may be a limit of 16 channels, plus the selected channel, with Motorola conventional, but I hope somebody can prove me wrong.
