Sir bigkim100 . . . . .
What is the purpose ?/ end use ? of this type of receiver ?
Or to " borry" his "sope" box and then mount and stand upon and quote our most honnable and esteemed
hevans1944 and emote . . . .quote . . . . .
Just cut the chase and TELL us what the HECK your FINAL end accomplishments use is being ! . .end quote . . . . . . . .then wipe off his box and return it.
I initially might only be able to perceive of its use by a long hauler truck driver, with a dedicated concern for safety.
(OR use by a quadraplegic invalid.)
The only scanning IC that comes to my mind is a minumalistic design FM scanning IC
**** . . . . .
TDA7088T . . . . that only scans in one direction and repeats at the very end ,
BUT, you are being totally blind, as it has no provisions to display the received station ID /or/ frequency.
It found mass utilization in small clip on FM receivers that fed its audio into an earphone . . . . . they eventually found themselves finally being marketed in . . . . .
Just a Dollar Stores.
****Also, just for FM only, there is ON semiconductors
LV24250LS, but to use that chip complexity, you would need to have electronic and digital design super expertise being entwined within the genetic make up of your one
BIG set of gonads.
Or
The other item is just merely using / buying one of the past and / or present AM/FM car radio receivers that have an up and down scanning pushbutton, as well as an additional selectable menu of memory preset frequencies.
But
SCRATCH that ADDITIONAL burden of SW radio spectrum ( mostly dead quiet nowadays, anyhow )capability !

Kids today don't know how easy they have it.
Why when I was young, I had to walk 9 feet through thick shag carpet just to change the TV channel.
