I got bored with my old set-up because it had too many talkgroups stored on it and wouldn't accept new frequencies. So, I re-programmed it with EVERY trunked and EVERY conventianal frequency from Collin, Dallas, Tarrant, and Denton counties in the RadioReference Database. To do this, I had to only use wildcards and no talkgroups, but I think I really like it that way and I still have 256 blocks available. I organized the scan lists as follows (Collin and Dallas are on 1-10, Tarrant and Denton are on 11-20):
1/11 = Municipality (City Police and Fire)
2/12 = County/Region (Sherriff and Regional Groups)
3/13 = Fed/Military
4/14 = Hospitals
5/15 = Transportation (airports/DART)
6/16 = Education (Colleges and ISDs)
7/17 = Attractions (Cowboy Stadium, Ballpark, AA Center, etc)
8/18 = Businesses (hotels, malls, misc)
9/19 = Media (news/radio stations)
10/20 = Open
S = Skywarn Frequencies for all 4 counties
F = Set-up for the ones I listen to most often.
Only took 2 hours with Win500 Web Import. I saved my old program in a virtual slot in case I ever want to go back. Anyone else ever do something similar?
