Manually Add TGID Names on Computer?

[ScubaJungle]

So I've figured out a lot since I got my scanner yesterday, thanks a lot to you guys. I figured out how to do the ID search so that I dont only see programmed TG's, but how can I now add the names of the TG's that I have in my personal collection that I found via SDR, and program them in to show with the names I designated. I can hear them now, but they just show as unknown TGID.
I found out how to do it on the scanner, but if I have to manually type in 50+ channels with that damn scroll wheel I think Ill go crazy! So, how can I do it on the computer with Proscan/Sentinel/ARC?
Thanks!

Sorry - scanner is BCD436HP

I got my scanner yesterday,

It would be helpful if you told us what model scanner - any time you ask a question or start a thread.

I understand, but I can't seem to find that particular issue in the manual. I see how to rename systems, Unit ID's, favorites, but I can't see how to edit the names of specific TG's. Actually, I dont even see TG's at all in Sentinel, just the frequencies that are tracked.

I think you have to make a favorite list with those TG's and then you can edit the TG under the favorite list created. I have added what I am talking about below. I have attached the Database Description and the list I created. Notice the TG #'s are the same, I changed what they display shows based on listening to the department and what they call them. I hope this makes sense and is what you are trying to accomplish.

thank you, I keep getting confused with favorites. Im used to just editing the TGID's straight from the system with SDR. I guess I have to add the TGs that I want to a favorites list, THEN I can edit the names. I was confused because the TG's were not showing up as they do in the screenshot you posted, but I was looking at the favorites list I created for the whole system. Not sure why we cant just directly edit the systems for our personal devices, but it seems thats my issue. When they pop up again Ill try adding them and then reading to computer and editing.

Since you have a FL created, click the + sign and "Append" the names. Then you can add the TG you have and start naming them and then load them to the scanner.
