BCD436HP/BCD536HP: BCD536HP Operating Hints/Shortcuts

[Flashley]

I purchased this radio years ago and just started getting back into the hobby. I forgot how frustrating it is to use. Is there a tutorial or list of shortcuts out there that is
available to help get me us and running again. I remember now why I kinda lost interest in the hobby after trying to use this radio. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Also, check over in the Georgia forum. Someone may have a file for the Augusta area that you can load into your scanner:

Welcome to the RR forums. Use Uniden Sentinel for programming until you get the gist on how to do it. After you get acclimated to programming favorites lists, quick keys, etc then step up to Proscan for greater FL customizations, remote scanner control and much more. Plenty of discussion about both apps on these forums, just search and find
