That is something to get used to. You have to click the stop button and then double-click on the next file you want to listen to. If you don't hit 'stop' it's D'OH!

Doesn't always happen. It only happens to me when I'm running through ~15 files in a few seconds

For me it doesn't do it every time but often enough that I just got into the habit.

If I get the gps puck and leave it hooked in, while I'm scanning through scanlists and/or close call, will the recordings I get(i record everything) the long/lat of where those signals were picked up at?
Unfortunately no. You'd think that would be one of the pieces of data that they'd put on the recordings, but the lat & long that they save is the lat & long of the department/system (the one you programmed into the scanner), not where your scanner is right now.
Truly a missed opportunity IMO.

Damn that’s a shame then. I just bought one for no reason. I guess it’s a 50$ well spent either way. I’m really surprised they didn’t have that as a thing. I also don’t really location program to much because I use quick keys for stuff I want to hear.
The point of a GPS is to tell the scanner where it is, so it can automatically adjust what it scans as your location changes. It's far better than quick keys, especially given the safety issues associated with constantly taking your eyes off the road to use the scanner keypad. If you don't program location info, you absolutely should get in the habit of doing so if you ever have any possibility of using the scanner mobile.

Ya I have to do that later. The puck and cord should be here today hopefully. I’ll have to setup everything today

Forgive me if it was answered somewhere. I have not found an answer yet, and hope someone could help or explain something.
I did a discovery for almost 2 days., on a local simulcast system.
When I went to look at and listen to the discovery audio.
I showed that ALL the freq were on an analog freq. (vhf) and did not show the simulcast system (800 mhz)
But the most disappointing thing was, it did NOT show the talkgroups
The most important and main purpose, was to see and hear the audio from the talkgroup.
It played the audio fine, but the information to see what talkgroup/system the audio was from was not showing properly.

Put the radio in ID searching then scan the system you want, then record and if you hear it said or see it displayed it should be recorded and will show Talk Groups, UID, Freq, etc. SDS100/200 don't always record everything, every time, as an example I have user names programmed and if they record the name they might not record/display the unit number. They do record everything else. I record around the clock and then review the data later, I discovered one new TG this morning already.
I would guess discovery should work the same but I don't use that mode. My info is based on a 436HP and a SDS100+200.

I feel like a dummy. I have a SDS200 and am using proscan to record. I am pointing the the player / organizer to the folders that proscan saves to and when I click on the open files it sees the folder but when I click on read it says no files found. I can click into the folders and see .wav files in the folder. What am I doing wrong. Thanks in advance for the help!

Pretty sure you need to use the scanners record feature for this program to work with those wav files.
@ProScan will be able to add more info if he sees my tag and reads this.

Thank you for the reply I don't feel quite as bad!
Definitely not. If ProScan is set up correctly, you can record audio on the computer, regardless of whether the scanner is recording to its SD card.

No worries at all. Right click the top head bar and the options that I see info with is => Screenshot

He didn't ask about recording it, he asked about opening the recorded files from proscan in this program. I don't know if proscan saves the info like the scanner does.
You can still play the audio, regardless of whether the metadata is populated. Worst case is that sorting by system and suchlike might not work.
If you can see the WAV files the program should be able to play them. When you choose open folder make sure you are choosing the folder with the WAV files.
