Default Radio Reference to Win97 Download Error

I've just purchased Win97 to interface with my RadioShack Pro-97. I've made several attempts to download trunking and talkgroup id information from Radio Reference. Obviously, I'm doing something wrong. Can someone assist me in the correct procedures to downloading an XML file into Win97. I'm going to File/Web Import/RadioReference.com/Trunked Systems. This is one of the urls that I copied and pasted:

http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=2593

I am receiving the following error:

XML error detected: mismatched tag
near:
</body>
^
while requesting URL:
http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=2593/?ol=1

I've also tried downloading conventional frequencies, but to no avail. Thanks for any assistance I receive in advance.

In Win97, once you have selected what to import at the RadioReference.com import page, try pressing the "IMPORT SELECTED CHANNELS" button at the bottom if you're going after conventional frequencies. For trunked systems, try the "IMPORT THIS SYSTEM" button located on the right.

Do not copy and past the URL from the db. The URL for WIN97 should be http://www.radioreference.com/apps/xml1.1
then login with WIN97 and select Country, State, County then the system you want from the menu in WIN97 that will come up after selecting country,state and county. The URL's your showing are the database URL's not the XML interface.
