Awesome! I did notice it was on 8, so I will start at 1 and try every tv commercial until I get it. Thanks a lot!

In Win500, go to Configuration and then serial port. I had to start with comm port 1 ( Use the up arrow to change ) and I got comm 3 to work with my computer. Try them all until you get the one to work. Subcribe to this forum, then you can import your channels correctly by the feature in win 500. That process is file then web import. I tried to enter the channels manually and had some trouble. I then subcribed to RR and used the web import and it went smoothly. Thanks to hoser for helping me out.
I hope that helps?

This is what I prefer and have talked to Rick about it a bit. I believe Rick has it on the back burner.Come to think of it, the easiest/cheapest (for everyone except Mike and Rick) option would be to have Win500 send the data to a UDP port on the local machine. PRO96COM and UniTrunker, if modified, could then read datagrams from a "well-known PSR-500 port" as if it was a COM port.
personally, I use my TCPMux program as a "gateway" between the server and client. If the server goes down, TCPMux automatically retries forever. The connection between the client and TCPMux is never affected.
He's using Vista, which I don't, so that may be the reason he's not seeing it based on the pointers.The USB Serial port is listed in Device Manager under Ports (COM & LPT).

pappy 1 / That did the trick. Slowly but surely I'm learning. I don't suppose anyone has a 'Win500 for Dummies' book that I could purchase? I wanted to set up the Denver EDACS system with talkgroups, and not the wildcard where every dang thing is monitored. For now I just want the fire dept. I'm not seeing where to enter a talkgroup (06-021), and how to make it NOT a wildcard group. I guess with patience and all the great people on this website I'll figure it out sometime. I will spend my entire Sunday working on this, but now I've got 5 days of work ahead of me.
THANK YOU!

Another Stewpid question. When you load a file from Win500 to the scanner does it automatically go to the ?working file?.

According to my information, the Marshfield (MA) Harbormaster's T/G on the Marshfield LTR system is "0-05-000." Likewise, according to my sources, "000" is a valid LTR UserID. However, when I attempt to enter this into my Win500 file, the program alters the entry to "0-05-001." Is this an error with the Win500 data entry mask or a limitation of the PSR-500? (Or is my information to the effect that "000" is a valid LTR UserID incorrect?)
That's speculation based on how they read the LTR specs.
