I live in Marsville and bought mine from Radio shack on sale last week (pro-97). THey programmed it for me. Dont knwo what they used but it filled up 5 banks. Lots of stuff I dont need. I am going to try the win97 software. But for newbies that just want to switch on and go. That way cool of RS to program. I noticed I get Whatcom county down to Kirkland and Shorline with stock antenna. That is awesome.

Ok so you got the 97 this web site has lots of good stuff for you to down load to your scanner, that given get the gray cable from radio shack I bought it from from the same store that you got your scanner from if you got it in marysville. now sonhomish county is a truncked system so look for it on this web page and down load it, it will fit in one bank on the 97 good luck. if you need help just ask and i will try my best to help. with win 97, scancat lite is not a good as good as win 97.

Thanks Lowboy! I did get it from Marysville store. They loaded all freqs and put the Trunked SnoCo freqs in my scanner for me. Works great. However I need to figure out how to priority Marysville. I think Marysville is nontrucked channel. Am I correct>? Are you local too?

i live in stanwood and i am listening to marysville right now in the trunk mode they still might be useing the old system to.

Mine says it is in trunk mode. I thought it was not because freq is like 158.*** not 800mhz.
My the way, where do I click on win97 and find the radioreferacne files to download?
