Dual Watch Scanning the Non-Active Channel Bank

Question for the group. I'm trying to mimic the functionality we have on our Motorola mobile radios where I set the active channel for transmission manually in Bank A, but no matter what I do Bank B continues to scan.

Basically I need to monitor 6 channels, but I am only going to respond on 1-2 of them generally. I just want the radio to scan all the time on the other bank and not stop scanning no matter what I do to transmit in the other bank.

Using a Jet Siphon to increase drafting distance in Rural Water Supply Operations

I'm just curious anyone has tried a setup where they use a jet siphon (which we typically use to move water between portable ponds) to draft from less accessible water sources (i.e. where you position the siphon in the water source (presumably with a filter on the end) and have it use the venturi effect to push water to the tanker/engine (if using soft hose to the direct tank fill rather than the intake).

What I'm thinking is really a poor department's version of a Turbo Draft, because we can't afford one of those.
