"Best" is subjective. What may work well/easy/best for one, may not for another.

The Pro-96 and BC246T have different programming cables.

Try them both and see which one YOU like best.

Both of those are quality software programs, as is UASD and BCTool (those are just the ones I have personally used... I'm sure others are well written as well).

I have been using Butel's ARC246 for the last few years but my area (Utah) just went through rebanding and there is not an update to ARC246 yet (watching for one everyday). I switched to FreeScan since it's last update added the Mot Custom/Reband option. FreeScan works great, but I can't wait to get the update to ARC246.
