Rick, thanks very much for the update. Here's what it's showing me now for my federal VHF system;

Also, just FYI, I loaded it on a second machine with Windows 2000, and it runs like a champ. No go on my Windows 98 machines, though...

Using a XP machine at work -- now with a few questions... Are the status messages explained anywhere? I have a Astro W7 on the MPSCS system sitting next to me and when transmissions are received a unit ID pops up on the display - is that part of the hex code?

Can I assume this is part of integration into the T4 program?

- Rob

[mikey60]

It'll be a week or so before I can try it again. Just sent my radio out for the upgrade and to have the volume control looked at since it's a little noisy, and I don't want to have the problem others are having with it.

[scannerfreak]

I as well cannot get it to run on a 98 machine. I did just run it on both my XP and ME machines with success.

Rick, thanks for the update. Now I just have to figure out all this info I am getting and what it all means!

[PSIP]

I have it running on a W2K box. works perfectly.
Is there any provision to log what is displayed? and if so, would it be helpfull for designing a Trunker version.. Who would I forward it to?
Thanks again for all of your efforts with this project.
BTW I am monitoring the MPSCS system in the Genesee/Saginaw area. This will be a major hotbed of activity in the coming months.

Put a

> output.txt

at the end of the commandline and it'll save it to a file called output.txt

Chris;

Let me know if the frequencies are being displayed correctly. So far I have yet to see a system advertise an identifier (band plan) of zero.

THIS IS WHAT I GET WHEN I TRY TO RUN THE PROGRAM. SOFTWARE WAS DOWNLOADED FROM ABOVE......CABLE IS HOOKED DIRECT FROM THE COMPUTER SERIAL PORT TO THE SCANNER 1 CABLE.
ANY SUGGESTIONS??

[rdale]

Are you running XP or NT?

[SEMTTP]

for this computer, windows ME. So just out of curiosity I hooked the cable back up to the wifes laptop and it works just fine. I then unplugged it and plugged it back into the desktop and ran a check on com 1 and it read just fine, but it will not run the dump program....


**FYI**

I hooked my 780 up to the same com port and used butel's software and uploaded everything so the com port is working.....but not on the pro96 and the dump program!

[rdale]

Windows ME is pretty close to Win98, so I imagine the same thing that is causing it not to work in Win98 is at fault here...

I've read through a few of the Win98/WinME problems in the other thread, and it seems that it might have something to do with the way the app uses the serial port.

Rick- If you're using the standard Windows APIs CreateFile/ReadFile/WriteFile, there are some subtle "tricks" to getting it to work across all versions of the OS. I can supply a C++ class that will do it, if you like.
