Pro96Com - Edit RID

[mikey60]

Shut down the program and do your edits and the start the program again. The program will not detect changes to the files after they are loaded unless you stop and restart the decode. And then, if you have the auto save option enabled, it may save the files over the ones you edited.

Mike

Correct, exactly why I was asking. Your edits are being overwritten because the program is still running.

 

[kma371]

I actually take the entire radio.txt file, throw in into a spreadsheet, edit it, send it back into a text file and drop it into the program folder.

Easy way to edit batches of radio ID's. Just my trick I use.

 

[mikey60]

That's the primary reason the files are in CSV format. To make it easier to edit externally. I could have made them binary files, which the program could load into memory much faster, but then you're stuck with what I'm able to give you for editing the data. Text formats open up many other possibilities.

Mike, Kma371, Chuck
Finally got it to work.
1. edit radio file, open as a .csv
2. make edits
3. save file
4. change file extension as .txt
5. if you have any of the additional auto save options check in the "data options" menu, uncheck them
6. start program

I also deleted all previous saved files from previous sessions.

Anyway, a bit of a road to travel, but thank you all for your help.

Glad it worked out. I think I'm over 8500 radios logged on this system! I usually go in every few months and update any new radios I haven't alpha tagged.

Radio IDs

Question, How do you get a reliable radio ID. In my city, the PD is always changing cars. We also have 9000 + radios. I have been able to do well with STARS (VSP) as the state boys all take there cars home.

radios are not with the same person every day. What i do is give each RID a generic name like, Sheriff "East Patrol". I rather see that text than "tag 3355 DT5/30/14@14:01.". Now for special ops, radios tend to stay with the specific person. I will name that RID with group names and prison name or rank (if known).
Now for Fire, the engine numbers will not change. this convention works for me.

I'm curious what you have for the fire radios. I'm OCD like you and like the engine/truck numbers listed

kma371,
do not have a whole lot of them since i started from scratch in trying to get the RID working, I deleted a few files trying to get the rid/text conversion. I will share what i have ID'd so far.

No wasn't listening. I log the radios from my remote but data only no voice
