Not sure of the exact menu option on the 396, but on the rest of the Unidens (780, 785, 250 ect) its:

MENU
SCANOPTION
TRUNK
SELECT BANK IN QUESTION
SCROLL DOWN/LOOK FOR "ACTIVITY ID"

AND TOGGLE IT OFF.

For the 396T -
Assuming alpha tags have been programmed in along with the TGIDs ...

During Scan, Press *HOLD*, it likely will stop on the control channel.

Then press and HOLD the *Function* key (top on side) depressed while you press the *5* key. This will allow you to toggle between alpha tags and TGID or the freq for conventional systems.
