Hello, Just a quick question on making some additions to a programmed system.
What is the best sequence to add some new frequencies in the middle of a column using ARC500 software ????
I have a small list of Fire Departments I would like to add some to with out messing up what I already have programmed in the scanner. I am a little gun shy about making changes.

Doesn't matter, but easier to add at end/bottom of existing list. Then, you could double click on the frequency column to sort the frequencies in acceding/descending order. This will improve the total time it takes scan that system. I do that with every system, but certainly not necessary.

We have ALL done that. The best defense is to back up your files before you make any changes.

To see where you files are, select File/Open system, and you will see the directory where they are all keep. Then you can create a new folder called back up, and copy all the files there. Once you do that, you only need to back up the system(s) to which you plan to change.
