Freescan: Programming Problems

[rpattison]

I am trying to program my BC346XTC scanner using Freescan software. I am using Windows 8 and it does not have the clipboard that is required by Freescan. Is there a way around using clipboard and using some other software program?

What precisely are you trying to do? Export data to another program? Mike

Windows 8 doesn't have clipboard????!!!!
Big problem. Can you highlight a bunch of info in a couple columns and copy? Or is this what you are saying can't be done in win8?

I presume you are trying to use the EZgrab function in freescan. If you can't copy to clipboard then I have no idea.

I am trying to program my scanner using my computer and freescan program. I can locate the frequencies on RR and can copy them, but am unable to paste them in the freescan box.

Since you are a paid subsciber, you could down load whatever frequencies you want into Free scan, avoiding any copy/paste. Just select File Import RR conventional, log in, and select your county. Then, just select frequencies you want to download. This is all explained in FreeScan User Guide - The RadioReference Wiki

Thats because you need to use EZGrab, not cut and paste.
