Now monitoring with my new Uniden 996XT
Wanted to add a little more to my initial introduction post above, especially after getting my feet wet with a new 996XT (more like getting soaked trying to drink from a fire hose)....
Delighted to be using the 996XT to be monitoring NC VIPER. And slowly climbing the 996XT and trunking programming learning hill..
Have downloaded and installed FreeSCAN and getting ready to clear the memory and download Marshal's XTFreescanCentralNC8202010.996 file into the 996XT..
Spent some time looking at the data in the above file using FreeSCAN.
After the first evening with my jaw dropping and eye's wide in a glaze crawling through the 996XT documentation, and this site, beginning to make a little progress in learning this new area.. In addition to the ham stuff, I've been a listener of the public safety frequencies for over 25 years.
Marshall, I hope we can twist your arm enough and with the offer of a free meal at Bullocks BBQ for you to come over some time next year to one of the DFMA Ham Club Meetings and give a little talk.
Welcome to the Durham FM Association
Would be nice to meet you face to face and obviously would like to hear you give a talk about radio reference and NC Viper and what ever you feel would be the most important.
We normally meet on the 1st Tuesday of the month with Dinner at 6:00pm and the meeting and program at 7:00pm at Bullocks BBQ..
regards,
Dan, KR4UB
