Hey folks, I have the BCD396XT and upon receiving a visit from a friend, he was inspired to pick up the exact same scanner. He's relying on me to set it up for him (poor guy).
I'm still in the process of learning these and can program them with some marginal success. But I think what would help is to see an example of a new working system with the programmed frequencies and such so that I can see a user level configuration. In the process, we can get his scanner programmed.
I'm hoping to get a file for a new system (not modifications to Colorado DTRS) and was hoping to get Adams County Sheriff, along with Thornton and Northglenn police and fire. With this, I can see a working example and could take it from there.
I'm using freescan through a serial port which is probably the best thing since sliced bread. I found out real quick that trying to program these things on the scanner keypad is a good way to get really frustrated really quick.
In any case, if someone could help me out with this I'd be really grateful. I know my profile says Arapahoe county (which is correct) but my friend is in Adams. Let me know if any additional or specific information is needed. Thanks in advance!
