Hello: I am new to this forum. I bought a Home Patrol and so far I think it's great. But I am having a problem that I believe is related to my lack of knowledge. I put in my zip code and I have several hundred frequencies listed for it. The radio scans them well but I have about 15 that I would...

Anybody here have any advice for programming the 197 to monitor Minnesota ARMER ? I'm manually programming a friend's PRO-197 scanner. I thought I had the scanner properly programmed, but I'm getting nothing. I don't care to buy the cloning software as I own a PRO-96 and already own that...
