nNotes:

You can also select the entire system and iSCAN will monitor all talkgroups and automatically use the best available site.

However, this could result in an excessively large number of objects imported to a playlist, which can slow your scanning time with unwanted talkgroups.

Talkgroups will not be imported to a playlist unless one or more sites in the system are also selected.
