A question about how to use FreeScan to program FTOs was asked in another forum and never answered, so I'll ask it here...
The screen is below...
Freescan FTO - The RadioReference Wiki
It's a little oddly labeled - for example what is 'low limit' and 'high limit'? Is that supposed to represent 'Tone A' and 'Tone B'? As has been documented before, it's important to use the right mode - Auto sometimes doesn't select the correct one. I would assume that selecting 'FM' would be correct most of the time, with 'NFM' only for those places that have gone narrowband. I would also assume that the 'rec out' would be usable for the XT series of scanners, as well as the usual 996T and 15T
It reads as if this is a screen to search for FTOs, not to actually program FTOs themselves (as suggested by the 'limits'.)
The screen above is from our user guide, so anyone can add details to it.
