Hello fellow scanner freaks. I just bought a Pro 2096 and am looking forward to getting the matching portable Pro 96. Being new to digital signals and trying my luck at entering freqs. manually I decided to get the Scancat Lite full version not trial. Upon using it I found some things out by trial and error but am still a little confused. I used pre made RSD files and kind of got the hang of things. But still to no avail I hate entering the data. Especially since my vision is kind of funky at my age.
Though new to using Scancat I find some querky things with it and decided to use Win96 - 30 Day Trial Version. This program has a lot better interface and is more dependable when sending the info to the scanner. My problem now is I try to use the Internet frequency search and get the data frome RR and it won't fill any banks with the data. I am a paid subscriber to the online data base here. Is this because I am using the trial version? I tried to write the selected info compiled from RR as a xml file to import but the file appears to be empty. I am really frustrated because when I purchased the rcvr. from Rat Shack the guy just loaded up Scancat, went here to RR and got the data and viola my scanner has stuff to listen to.
Any help for the newbie? Or should I say HOPE?
Thanks folks for any info you can supply and I look forward to picking your brains in the future.
