[Scan-DC] Need scanner suggestion

[Ed Tobias]

Thanks to Larry and Doug for the quick response.  Larry, do you know if the 
HP-1 would allow me to directly select a talk group.  For example, if I'm 
monitoring dispatches on 7A and operations are going to be on 7C, can I 
switch directly to that TG (rather than having to wait for the radio to stop 
on a 7C transmission and then hitting "hold?"
