I have a PRO-83 I wanted to program it using the Freeware Load83. Looks like it is easy enough to operate. When I was going through the directions to see how it works, I notices it said that you can put in a description of the Frequency. Now my questions is will that description show up on the scanner?...Because I'll tell you I love that little Scanner but I hate the fact that if you do not know the channels you are not sure who is transmitting.
Now would "Common Weather frequency." show up on the scanner? Because if that is the case I will be one happy camper. But I have a feeling it is not going to work out like that.
Also do you have to erase the scanner before programming it or will Load83 simply overwrite it?
Please inform.
Thanks fellas,
