Butel & 796D
Gatorman--
I, too, use the Butel software. Never even tried the Uniden software because of all the positive Butel reviews. The only trouble I ever had with it was finding a USB cable to work but that had to do with the fact I was using a Macintosh. I bought a Win XP laptop and now it's a lot easier. I've had mine since they first came out and I'm just now beginning to learn some things about it. I think you, Neal, David and myself are in the minority on here using the Uniden--that I can remember. I'm a member of some of the Yahoo groups re: the 796 and 396 and get some help there. If I can help you, just ask on here or send me a PM.
