I have ordered the BCD996P2, have not received it yet, but want to add local ham frequencies to it.
Will I be able to do that, if so using which software etc? (I purchased it with programming already done for Public Safety freqs)

You can do it without software. Just follow this:

Press Menu
Turn the scroll knob to Search For
Then press Service Search
Select HAM Radio

Programming with software:

FreeSCAN

ProScan

ARC XT

ruhlovell,
i sent directions on how to manually program a conventional system.
look for the envelope at the top right of this page.

Is it still there because I am looking and don't see it. Can you be more specific? Thanks.
