What problem are you seeing?If someone can help me out with the Pro96com on a Radio Shack 2096 base scanner please
OK, I'll assume that the USB link cable works with WIN96 to program the scanner. First check the Com Port in the Program Configuration dialog of Pro96Com. Be sure it is set to the same port as you use for WIN96. Next, find whatever control chaannel you are going to decode. Manually step or goto that channel until you hear the data stream and you see the percentage of packets the radio is decoding correctly on the bottom line of the display. Plug in the USB cable to the PC Interface plug on the side of the radio (not the headphone audio jack on top) and press, PGM, FUNC, PGM, PGM. Yoiu should see a screen on the radio that looks like this:it the ks digtal that i work with
1.6.10 is the latest, although there is a 1.7.0 in beta testing, and should be out soon.OK, I'll assume that the USB link cable works with WIN96 to program the scanner.

CLR to EXIT
On the main program screen, click on the "Data Read from Radio" button down at the bottom of the screen. If you were decoding data before going into the data dump mode on the radio, you should see a percentage of packets decoded listed as "Receive Rate", I believe it is now displayed on the righthand edge of the program screen in the newer versions of the program. (Version 1.6.10 released 06/24/08 is the latest version unless Mike did something this weekend I haven't read yet) If you don't, then the most likely culprit is your Com Port Settings in the program.....
You followed the procedure in my last message correct?i still have problem with the Radio shack usb cable with pro96com
When you hold on the Control Channel, what is displayed on the bottom line of the scanner?it is still not working i get a failure on it. I'm lost
Well, that confirms that it is a 9600bps system... And following the procedure I gave you earlier didn't work?it is show the 96:sy1b2 92% tp10d94% beeo092%
Exactly what led up to this error message?You must me using Windows Vista. I'm having the same problem.

Ok, I'm just trying to figure how when that occurs so that I can try to fix it.Nothing really, just downloaded the program and installed it. It gave me that message from the beginning.
The drivers work fine. I use them on PROSCANprobably not anything to do with it, but make sure you have the latest updated drivers for the cable?
