The major problem with the 7600GR that the 7600G did not have is
muting when you change frequencies, which slows you down to one poke
a second if you scan manually that way.

Actually, you CAN scan without muting. Just press the up or down 1kz instead of
the 5kz, and keep it pressed. It scans just like a manual dial scan. When you
hear something, just lift your finger.

I did not discover this, someone posted it in this NG about 2 years ago, and I
was amazed that 1) I never knew this, and 2) the manual doesn't say anything
about it.
