With radio reference its not hard.
You do need to use programming software to talk to the rr database.
Get your hands on scan control which I believe is on the CD in the box
and use that.
It leaves alot to complain about with accessibility but it works.
I have a friend who has the same scanner and I will get you in touch
with him and yhe can help you get it up and running.
Of course you can enter your zipcode and let the radio program itself.
A Aftewards you can trim things down wit scan control.
