Haha that’s awesome and much appreciated.The P2's already come preprogrammed with an older copy of the RR database... To get it you would have to reset the scanner.
Now if it were me, I'd program each county as a system. Then each group in each system (county) may be something like Police, Fire, EMS, etc.
Yes, keeping more than one copy of different scanner databases from ProScan will help. I do this all the time. One is for here at home and another on the go.
North Dakota is rolling out a new system and is/will be mostly encrypted.
I have a very novel way using PHP code and pulling data from the database webpage and using Notepad++ to copy/paste to ProScan. Because I can copy/paste, I can upload HUGE amounts of data. LOL! Having said that, I can probably make you a Proscan database file. I own both P2's. Is there anything you want in particular? It sounds like you want the whole U.S. You could do that, but have to limit on the departments. That, and well, I don't think I'm willing to go through 50 states of data.
I mainly just need highway patrol then my thought was with the gps unit I could close call priority mode everything else.
if you have a way to make quick work of it I would be happy to toss you some pizza or beer money for your time.
Priority states would be North Dakota, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Washington, California, Wyoming, Oregon.
Actual cannonball run states are New York to LA and that can be weather dependent but you get the idea.
So the car is a dedicated cannonball car New York to LA. But there are several other runs it will make first before that attempt.
Initial testing will be done in Montana to North Dakota.
Then Canada to Mexico maybe in Montana that’s undecided.
So I’ve been working on just kind of the western part of the United States for now.
I just did a run through Nevada to California with only a radar detector and Waze and did just fine. In a bright orange super car haha.
This is only an additional layer of protection.
It’s my understanding that if I put all highway patrol the gps unit would do the work for me?? So it didn’t matter how much I threw on there but I’m understanding now it may make sense to add based on the run that’s going to be made.
