Another new guy

Hi to All,

New to RR and new owner to the 996. I am in St. Clair County, Michigan so if any one out there in the county(or anywhere else) has a 996 I sure would appreciate the help in learning the scanner. It looks like a steep learning curve!!

Hello Michiganders,
I am Tim from Centerline. I am new to scanning, and having a great time so far.

This site has been a huge help to me in learing the ropes.

I bought a RS Pro-96, and usually monitor Warren/Centerline, as well as MSP and Macomb county sherriff. I hope to learn alot more about scanning and am sure will be expanding my equipment arsenal... My wife said she can tell already this is going to be an expensive hobby :)

Hi ya all.

Im in Brighton Mi, Monitering Livingston and Washanaw county public safty.

Welcome.
The best way to program your radio is with the Win96 program from Don Starr.
You can find it at http://www.starrsoft.com/
You can try it for 30 days before paying for it but 99.999% of the users here will tell you to get it. When you do decide to pay for it (and you will because once you start using it you are too spoiled to go back to manual entry) use a credit card or Paypal and you will get your key in a matter of minutes.
