Thanks! I'm getting a BCD996XT soon and compared to my Pro-2096 it looks like I've jumped the learning curve a little more than I thought. I see it's a great unit from reviews and buyer support, but also see a lack of updates for it as compared to other units. Not to mention how to program this one versus the V-channel ability of the 2096, and I'm already looking into getting a subscription here!
Should be fun!
EDIT: I failed to mention I did pick up software and a PC cable for computer programming and control as well. Thinking about downloading Freescan as well if the software CD I bought (which is Butel ARC-XT for Bearcat XT units) doesn't meet my expectations.
