Hi, Bob. Sure will. Have some tidbits right now:
Scanner needs to be plugged in for an initial 50 hours to charge the
scanner's clock battery. Then, it willl hold the time. Right now,
when I turn on the scanner, I need to reset the time and date.
Also, the BCD Sentinel software that comes with the scanner is pretty
accessible. You can adjust the receiver range, what services you
want to scan, etc. It doesn't, however, help you adjust the time or
get real status of what's on your scanner in terms of freqs, etc.; at
least I don't know how to get this info. Also, unable to adjust
volume as yet. More to follow.--Matt, N1IBB.
