For Don S. and other software writers....

When do you expect your programs to be compatible with the new RR Database CD ROM?


Thanks,

Mike

As SIG-INTmentioned, PSREdit100, PSREdit300, PSREdit500, and Pro96Com are already compatible with the RadioReference.com CD-ROM. They were ready for the CD-ROM when it was released.

The Option needs to be turned on in the configuration screen before the CD-ROM button will appear on the import screens.

One note on the CD-ROM: Some lookups may take longer to perform from the CD-ROM than they do from the web service, especially if your machine is not real high powered.

Yes, thanks...I read the WIKI before I posted the question. Should'a mentioned that.

I actually copied the entire CD to a folder on my secondary hard drive and run it from there. It helps overcome the slowness of running it on the optical drive. If you do this on a PC, look for folders and files from the CD that are for Linux and MAC's and delete them. They are not needed and this will recover a considerable amount of drive space.

Maybe the Butel guys can chime in? Am I leaving anyone out?

My programs support both the RR.com database and the CD database, but still has 1 problem with part of the CD interface. Latest versions of TrunkMon and PCR Pro have the new update, the others will have as soon as the new updates are released...

Crazy,
What are your programs?

PCR Pro, TrunkPCR, PCR Remote and TrunkMON.

Mostly ICOM PCR Support, but TrunkMON will support what BC-Tool, Free Scan or ID Tranker(I/II) support now..
