First I'd like to say what a great site with a wealth of accurate information! I recently upgrading my account to prem status to take advantage of programming my Uniden BCT15 with FreeSCAN. Everything has worked great and programming has been a breeze with the seamless integration with radio ref database. I am in the NW Suburbs of Chicago and have been able to successfully programs Lake and McHenry counties in Illinois as well as Kenosha county in Wisconsin as far as conventional scanning goes. I have also added trunked programming for those counties.
My snag lies with conventional freg programming for cook county. When I log in using FreeSCAN and enter in all pertinent info like country and state everything functions, menus are populated, etc. When I choose county things seem to hang when selecting cook, awaiting the list to propogate with frequencies. I have been able to program trunked cook freqs but no luck with conventional...it erros out in which case I can choose to "conmtinue" and nothing new happens or "quit" and the program closes. It's as if the program is hanging, almost timing out waiting for the cook county freq's to populate. Could it be the sure amount of cook county frequencies that is causing the issue with FreeSCAN? Is there anyway to download a file from Radio Reference and import those cook county frequencies into FreeSCAN to avoid the menu populating issue?
Anyone experience this before?
Thanks in advance for your time.
