I set menu items in Ergonomics under trunking menu items but in certain zones the items disappear ie. Nuisance Delete, Scan, etc. But when I return to other zones, they show up. I setup my scan list also.
Any help is appreciated

You need to mirror pretty closely the buttons between conventional n Trunking otherwise this happens. Those buttons change on a per channel basis.

So if you put scan as the top button choice it’ll show as the furthest left soft button on an O5, but only on channels where scan is setup. If no scan is setup for that channel, it drops it and goes to the next menu item, at least that’s been my experience.

I generally put zone down n up as first two and then whatever else is needed afterwards so the zone up n down buttons stay put. Both those need to be set in the same manor for conventional n Trunking.

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks for replying. I fixed my problem by taking another personality of trunked talkgroups that had the buttons that I wanted, copied it and replaced the TG's with mine and that fixed it.
