Was wondering if there is anyway to remove a state from the database in the sentinel program? Living in NJ and want to remove all of PA.

Wrong. You can delete listings in the master database. It is a pain but you can edit the MDB with a text editor. But it will just revert the next time you update.That is a no, you cannot edit the Sentinel database. You can edit a favorites list.

Thanks..Damn, thank you very much u2brent. You da man!
And along the way, you may just discover that "favorites lists", and "profiles" are two of the best features of these SD card scanners!It is a pain to get to and I may just do the custom thing. Again, thank you very much
There might be one way. Purchase RadioReference from Mr. Blanton and remove PA from the database so when Uniden creates their updates it won't be included. Probably not gonna happen, but still an option.Was wondering if there is anyway to remove a state from the database in the sentinel program? Living in NJ and want to remove all of PA.
Unless I’m missing something, a favorites list seems like an easier fix to me. Just don't add the state of PA.It's a dice shot, but you could try using a different location (as in zip code) that is farther east of you. Whether this works depends on how much the PA stuff overlaps on to your state.
That said, Favorites Lists are your best choice. Favorites Lists are around for those users who are more specific on what they want to monitor.
At the time the OP's original question was asked, he was not using favorites lists, just the master database... and wanted to know if an entire state could be deleted from that. In his post #12, he was going to give favorites lists a try for that reason... as advised in post #4, 5, and 11.Unless I’m missing something, wouldn’t not adding the state to the favorites list solve the situation? Seems like an easier fix to me.
