Hi

ALL of the Radio Shack scanners With only a few exceptions use "cloning", so there is NO method of simply 'adding' a frequency or two unless you do it "manually". You MUST add them to the same "mirrored" database you have on the PC and then send the entire thing back to the scanner. Otherwise empties in the database erase that spot in the radio.

ONE way would be to READ the radio each time you want to add a couple, then once the database shows the radio's programming, just add them to that one, and send it back to the radio.

As to a "simple step by step instruction", first take a look at this FAQ on our WebSite.

http://scancat.com/OnLineHelp/FAQ-AssortedSubjects/GETTING_STARTED_With_Scancat.htm

and THIS one is a 5-6 part step by step on using the Frequency CD's

http://scancat.com/OnLineHelp/MrScanner_HTML_Tutorials/

There are lots of others, so look there first and then you can always contact us for specific things you need to find out.

Best regards

I did get the scan lite package deal in the mail yesterday but I have a question now. Is there a way to load certain freq. into my scanner by picking and choosing the ones that I want and down loading them from  my computer to the scanner with the cable that Radio Shack made me buy or do I have to loan the freq. by hand? Do you have a simple step by step direction page for my Radio Shack Pro 2096? I tried to write down everything that your phone system said but he talks way to fast for me to write it down so I missed a LOT and just gave up. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated, THANK YOU.

Hi
We only have the "software" for programming your radio from a Windows
PC, and do not sell "Local Frequency lists". Our Scancat-Lite-Plus
supports the PRO-2096. More information is at this link:

www.scancat.com/scl
However We DO retail This company's Frequency CD, and some basic
information is at this URL. This CD has all the frequencies for the
entire USA, but you will need a computer to use the CD.

www.scancat.com/mrscanner
We sell a package with the software AND the frequency CD at this URL
