How are you setting up the scanning? The way I usually like to do it is to
program the main simplex and local repeater frequencies into memories, and
then scan through those. But because you can't listen on memory frequencies
as you tune through them, you can't scan through them either.

The trouble with using the VFO to scan a mixture of simplex and repeater is
that you have got to remember to enable or disable the repeater shift before
you PTT.
