BCT15X Programming

[BobW55]

Have a BCT15X that will be here on Thursday. I did a search on here, and looks like there is now real drop and drag programming like sentinel offers, or is there?

I have started to build a favorites list in Proscan. I am only going to use this for Air and Military Air.
I have a list of the wanted frequencies, just going to be a pain to manually enter them all.

That scanner doesn't us "Favorite Lists"

Here's the manual you can study to set up your new scanner:

Not a pain at all. Before you enter the frequencies in the ProScan database, you want to ensure the BCT15X is selected in the menu Scanner Type.
You can use the Get Clipboard function to import the frequencies so you don't have to manually enter them in.
Create a conventional system first then a group. At the group level, the Get Clipboard function will show enabled.
Before clicking the Get Clipboard button. Take the document containing the frequencies and copy the frequencies and other info such channel text tags to the Win Clipboard.

Ok I will have a look. Will have to see if I can cut and paste from the ProScan log file as well.

Very aware of this. Favorites list may have been a poor choice of words, but the systems are kind of the same

With ProScan, you can import form the database since you are a Premium Subscriber. But, you can also 'import' from a Favorites list, so if your range of frequencies is already programmed in a Favorites via Sentinel, just have ProScan pull them to your 15X programming file.

You could do that or use the "Copy/Move Selected Rows To Database or Other File" button.

And thank you for Proscan. The logging part made it really nice to figure out the active Frequencies in my Area.
I may just continue manually for the ANG base and many of the Civilian Air stuff. Cut and paste will make the Air show stuff easier.
