Today I bought a Uniden BCT15 and ARC15-Lite to program it. When I went to save a system in ARC15 I noticed it saved it as an ARC996 file. Hmmm.. interesting. I have ARC996PRO and a completely set up BCD996. So. . . . can I read my ARC996 system files into ARC15 and save myself a ton of work programming the new radio (essentially cloning the 996 into the 15)? All systems in question are analog.

The hangup might be that the BCT15 knows the "State" location of the system, whereas the BCD996 does not, so maybe that makes the ARC files different. I tried my idea, and the "State" comes up blank in ARC15. Not sure if everything else is ok.
