RR database updates and favorites

[beaterbox]

I update my SDS200 database every week and recently I saw there were a number of changes with some of the trunking systems in my area. It seems some frequencies and control channels have changed. In regards to my previously created favorites, will these updates carry across to them or do I have delete and recreate these favorites to pick up the changes?

As asked previously, any database updates do not carry down to favorites:

BCD436HP/BCD536HP: - Favorites List with Sentinel Software or Manually

My question, I have watched a view videos and i am still not sure if i use Sentinel Software to create a favorites list when i down load or force write to the scanner will that replace my full data base or install it under Favorites List or do i have to do the favorites list the manual way in...

Ok, thank you. I assumed that would be the case.

You can EDIT them.... No need to delete / replace unless you want to re-populate the whole system.

ESPECIALLY if you have any customization - like rectangles. Then, you have to edit them in order to not loose your hard work. (Always have a back-up!)
