Hi folks
I have had this scanner now for years and finally with the help of RadioReference.com got it programmed to receive trunking.
I put one SCAT site in each Bank.
When I hit scan it locks on to Bank 4 (Torbay) and I get activity for Clarenville and Bonavista. The scanner keeps flashing FM and Data between Conversations and then Apco25 during conversation. It stays on Bank 4 and that seems fine.
Then I go to another part of the Island to visit friends and when I hit scan the scanner just scans all 6 Banks and receives nothing.
Go back home turn it on and it works fine again.
The RR info is listed below, any info would be appreciated.

Thanks for the reply Dave
No I do not lock on to a control channel in Badger. Where it works
fine is on the east coast in Elliston, Trinity @ 300Km as the crow
flies and I visit friends in Badger right on top of the Icon
(transmitter location), This is a repeated system so you would think
it should not matter about distance. I am not sure about Pro-Voice,
but the system is used by the RCMP right across the island.

Can you receive a control channel (when you go to the other part of
the
island?) Sounds like either you are out of range or in an area that
uses
Pro-Voice which no scanner can monitor.
