My Home Patrol died, and from my experience with it, the programming
software it uses was usable but only with the Virtual Mouse with
System Access. It is also not built as well as the Radio Shack
scanners. I have a Pro 97, and after almost 8 years of heavy use, it
still works very well. I am searching for a second scanner since
railroads end up getting dedicated to one, and I am looking at the
Uniden Bc396XT and the Radio Shack Pro 651. What is making this hard
is deciding which one will be easier to program.
