OdinsVoice,
I'm expecting delivery of my BC346XT as well, so perhaps we will be learning together... Although I purchased the USB cable and plan on programming with the computer instead of by hand. Our scanners, the BC346XT, use DMA (Dynamic Memory Scanner) - and I hear it's a little harder to learn initially.
There is A LOT of stuff on the wiki about everything from the scanner itself to the networks and how to program them in. It's also great because when I hit a term I don't know it's either linked to another article - or I can search it.
The wiki is your friend.
I have a suggestion, and
others may decide if it's good or bad advice. The wiki has step-by-step instructions for programming the scanner for the Bell Fleetnet system. (That would be a lot of the provincial agencies, OPP, MTO, etc.).
I suggest that one option you may want to consider, is to follow the instructions to program the Fleetnet system into your scanner. If it works - presto! Then you can follow the same steps with Peel. Makes sense, right? However, keep in mind I have not done this yet myself.

Here is a LINK to my first post in the newbie section. It's a good place to look for help understanding the unit and the concepts itself. Keep in mind that double posting (or cross posting) the same message between multiple forms is frowned upon though.
