I'm thoroughly confused about the best means of using the GPS as I'm traveling down the road with the SDS-100. I'd like to connect everything up (I think I understand this) and hit the road. As soon as I transition through different areas, I'd like the scanner to just find and adjust to receiving the new frequencies in the new area. For example, traveling from Wyoming into Nebraska, the scanner would just switch to monitoring the Nebraska State Troopers and local Sheriff's Office and Police Departments. Can I do this? From what I've been reading, I need to preprogram every department I am passing through into a favorites list before my journey. I guess I was thinking I could just scan the "Full Database" with the "Nationwide Systems" I want. Maybe I need to turn off all the "Nationwide System" and just select the "Services Types". Do I need to set the range somewhere? Is there a guide in outline form that shows "Do this first", Do this second", etc...?
Can you help me without laughing at me too much? I'm still new and trying to figure out things like the tone alerts and quick keys, among other things.
