Which of the softwares works best with the BCD396T

That's largely a matter of opinion. Some people like the Butel ARC396, some people like Uniden's UASD software. I have used both, and I lean toward Butel's. The one you get used to and comfortable with is the one you will prefer. JMO.

If you wouldent mind paying for the software, the ARC396 works quite well. To have a look at it, you can download the free trial here: http://radioreference.com/forums/showthread.php?t=41319

If you want a software that it quite simalar and works fine in my opinon, the you would probably want Unidens USAD Software: http://radioreference.com/forums/showthread.php?t=41319

And don't forget Scan Control...not only does it work with the 396, but (shameless plug here), it will shortly support the 996 (scheduled for Mid July - programming only first, control a bit later...). One of the nice things about SC is that it will support upgrading data from other Uniden scanners, if you happen to be in that position.

And don't forget about the Linux software as well - in fact, we have links for both on the 396 wiki page.
