John:

 A very logical question.  No only do I have the NWS 6 or 7 broadcast
channels, I also have the two Skywarn channels for my home area, as well as
some Fire and EMS dispatch channels in my home area.    This 'odd' group
allows me to move around the state (in Florida) and not have to
specifically program or dial to the specific channel.

It's something I want to try now that I know what the TO/CO/SE designations
mean.

Thanks for your help on this.

Larry

I'm curious why you want to scan the NWS frequencies. Generally, there is
only one that covers your geographical area and the others are out of
range. Also, because they never stop transmitting, your radio will stop on
it every scan cycle.
