Software/Hardware to use with Probe
If you know of any good software/hardware add ons that can be use with Probe
let me know about it, Steve (N3FWE)
Software
- ScannerBase
Scannerbase is a frequency CD-ROM with a very nice front end that will export
frequencies you select to your harddrive in UFDBF format. Probe will then import
these freqeuncies for you to scan.
- Percon
Percon also offers frequency database CD-ROMs that will export freqeuncies to your
hardrive in UFDBF format. Percon offers the CD-ROMs in Regional and national verisons.
- Programit
Programit is a interface that will program your scanner. It will allow
you to directly import a Probe's freq.dbf file and look at Probe's bank field
and program those frequencies into the same bank on your scanner. I have my programit
interface in the same scanner as my Optoboard. I create a special group in Probe of
400 or 100 frequencies with 10 banks to match my scanner to use with the Programit combo.
- RecAll
Recall is Windows 95 program that records scanner audio to your harddrive with
voice-activated software and your soundcard. Using Probe and the Optoboard recorder
relay you can complete the circuit and only send audio on frequencies you specfic in
Probe. Another method is assign those frequencies/banks you want recorded to a Hyperbank
which will turn on the recorder on for all freqeuncies and hit that hyberbank when you
want the audio to be recorded to your harddrive.
