Using SDS200 & ProScan.

I would like to compare two different database files that were exported out of ProScan. 1 file is my usual favorites and the second file I had the scanner set to use all services and full database based on my location and 10mi radius. My idea was to weed out my favorites and see if I was missing any listening opportunities.

I have 500+ frequencies loaded in my favorite with a lot turned off. My ProScan history after 24hrs shows about 32 frequencies that I am receiving regularly - so an obvious huge opportunity to prune my favorites list. The full database showed about 30-40 channels after 24hrs.

I have both database "txt" files and used Compare in MS word but - wow what a mess that was to go through. For a text document maybe ok but for the database files unreadable. I see there are online "diff finders" but was hoping for an off line / local solution.

Not even sure if my approach is right any suggestions are welcomed.
