The included cable and the Uniden software is based on a serial port. If your PC does not have an available serial port, there are USB to serial adapters available.

It goes back a lot further than that Mark. RS232 serial port was first developed in 1962!

Speaking of the 80's :lol:

That reminds me, I need to get a cable to program my Uniden MR8100.
