Default Uniden BCD996T Unable to restore any groups after disabling all groups withinin a system

My question is about the Uniden BCD996T scanner. I have a "conventional
system" called Air Traffic which includes four groups for various airports
in my area. Each group contains several frequencies for that airport.
Sometimes, I want to listen to just one airport, not all of them and I use
the group quick key to disable the airports I don't want to listen to.
However, I recently disabled all of the groups within the system and now
apparently there is no way to turn them back on. I keep getting "nothing to
scan" message. I can turn the "system" on and off with it's quick key, but
I can not turn on any of the groups within the system. I use FreeSCAN
software to program the scanner and save backups of my programming. If I
delete the system from the scanner and re-upload it from a file using
FreeSCAN, it works again, but surely there is a better way. If not, this is
a serious bug, because if you ever turn off all the groups within a system,
there is apparently no way to turn them back on again. Any help would be
appreciated.


Thanks,
