Can I program a Uniden BCD325P2 using a file saved from a Uniden BCD436HP or a BCD396XT?
ProScan: Official Software Thread
Yes look under import on the database drop down at the top left corner of the program.

ProScan Questions....
1.) Under "Utilities" in the "Favorites Editor", what does the "SORT" and "UPDATE TEXT TAGS" do? I can not see anything different happening when I click on them.
2.) I have several FQK's that have become out of order and would like to organize them in sequence, is this possible? Is this what SORT should do?
3.) Under "SERVICE TYPES" there are 8 custom selections, are you able to rename, say custom 1 to read "Stores" etc.
Thanks for a great piece of software.

On question 1. After you click on the Sort menu item, a dialog will appear. Choose the Type, Items, & Direction. After that, click the Sort button. You will see the instant changes in the Favorites Editor. Same with the Update Text Tags menu item, chose the type and Action then click the Update Text Tags button.
On question 3. I don't think the custom service type names can be edited using the scanner or Sentinel.
{edit} On question 2. Yes by FQK or Text Tag.

When I click on sort or update text tags nothing happens, there is NO dialogue box appearing. Any ideas?

Could it be the dialogs are actually there but they are off to one side of the computer screen kind of hiding? Perhaps they were dragged there at one time.
Try this for a fix:
1. Exit ProScan
2. Edit the ProScan.cfg file
3. Look for the following lines and delete them
[SORT OPTIONS POSITION C]
[UPDATE TEXT TAGS OPTIONS POSITION C]
4. Start ProScan5. Click the Sort and Update Text Tags menu items and see if the dialogs appear

Errr, don’t know if I feel comfortable doing that. I will look around for the dialogues and under any windows etc. I can post a video of what doesn’t happen tomorrow evening.

No need to post a video. All you need to do is send me an email so I can send you the latest ProScan file.
It was one of my added folders and it was a Norton Sonar alert for few users unverified. No big deal I put all 3 Proscan folders on a list not to be scanned and added Proscan to my list a files to not be scanned. It was Norton Security on Proscan 14.9

There is always a delay from what you hear live on the scanner and what you get back from Broadcastify. Just internet delays and not a thing you can do about it

Internet delays are insignificant. It's about 75 to 150 ms. Look at the RSOIP feature wherever connected around the world. Put the scanner in menu mode and watch the virtual display respond back.
I was referring to Broadcastify processing delays.

I think most of the delay is caused by the media player built in network buffer. It's around 20 to 24 seconds on a solid connection. If the delay is more than that then it could very well be the Icecast(Broadcastify) servers contributing to the delay.
If I listen to the live scanner in most cases the traffic is over for something like a minute before it comes across via Broadcastify. Or I should say the APP that streams Broadcastify namely Scanner Radio Pro. Drives me crazy, one reason why I rarely listen to my stream while I am home.

When assigning a large number of sequential number tags to channels in a group, is there an easier way that clicking on each individual channel and selecting it from the dropdown list? The "Get Clipboard" utility is a good idea, but there's no option for Number Tags.
What about just clicking the box and typing in the number then click the next box and do the same. Would that work.
(edit) Also it shouldn't be in the Get Clipboard function. All that stuff should be done in the main spreadsheet after importing.

Yes, of course that works. It's just that if you have a large number of tags....
Depending on the software, I can sometimes copy a column of numbers from Excel and just paste them into the number tag column.
Just curious, when did it become mandatory to delete Proscan registration upon uninstalling? It still asks but no matter what you answer it deletes the registration.

It has always been the same when using the Win Remove Programs feature. It will not delete the license if you remove the files from the ProScan folder.
I recall before I could uninstall and tell it to keep the registration and it did. Now no matter which answer you give it is deleted. No biggie, I have a copy of my registration just in case.
