I would like to start getting ready for my BCD396T when it arrives so I can program it. I have ARC246 software (full version) and have several files. I most likely will be using the USAD software to program the 396. Is there a way to convert ARC files to USAD or can I copy and paste? What I am doing is adding more freqs. With the 396 having over 2000 more channels than the 246 I would like to add more for when I travel. I wanted to have all the freqs in some type of format that would easily transfer to the USAD software. Any other ideas? Thanks for any replies

Boy it must be nice to have money.....I'm green with envy. :wink:

Anyway, to your question; if ARC246 is like Gommert's other packages, there's an option to dump the file into a csv format. Now the question is - can the UASD software accept data via copy/paste (in some of Scancat's packages -Scancat Lite Plus comes to mind - you would need to use Control-C to copy the data and Control-V from Excel to paste it)?

Granted that it's not a direct import type function, but it would save you at least some typing. 73s Mike

I have been working odd jobs...detailing cars, handy man type stuff for several months now! I have worked my butt off to get this money. I am still about $100 short and have a couple months left. I am lucky enough to work for the Fire Dept which gives me time off to do these odd jobs....24 on 48 off is very nice :D . I don't just have money laying around, I have to work for it! :) I don't have a problem with having to work for things I want......Especially a scanner as nice as the BCD396T :D
