Default New Program

Evening,
I wrote a new program for the Inland Empire east of LA
using the Winscan 2.10. I have all the Railroads, CHiPs and
local fire, some of the PD's that are not "trunked" and most
of the aircraft freq.'s plus the "High Desert" freg's so I
can listen on my way to and from home.

I'm happy with the way it is working right now and as I
find more freq.'s I'll add them. I picked up most of the
major stuff as I came from Kern County to this area.

I used my Magnet Mount on my pickup and am using the
"rubber ducky" in my travel trailer right now. I'll bring a
Scantanna down with me next week and things should work a
lot better.

I also have a AN-1 Sony for my YB400 that I use down
here. I have everything running off the 12v battery to cut
down on noise.

Well, guess I just wrote a Winscan frequency file and am
running it both as stan alone in the BC 245 and with my PC
Laptop as a monitor of what's happening.
Are you the person that loves Winscan so mush, got it all
figured out and running it everyday. It sure is a nice
program and it runs real well, I just love running it!!

I cant stand winscan. No support from the company and it uses almost

free.


Something is a little wrong here. I am running five programs
right now and they are all running very fast and I have no
crashes. Also I have had email support from Winscan and I
also could have called if needed, I sent you their phone
number last year so what you say most of the time is a lot
of bull from someone who can't manage a program on an old
computer that is setup wrong or is just so messed up it
won't run!

Maybe you should think and about a new computer (386 went out
years ago) and then learn how to use this an other programs.

Maybe you could also learn how to type your email address so
people can write or reply to you.

In article ,

LOL I and everyone that has tried winscam knows your full of it. I never
said that it crashes I just said it uses almost 100% of your cpu.

Also I have had email support from Winscan and I
also could have called if needed,


You could have but you would have never heard back from them.
I sent you their phone
number last year


You did no such thing

so what you say most of the time is a lot
of bull from someone who can't manage a program on an old

My Athlon XP Barton 3000 with 2 gig of ram is far from a 386. Its not
like winscam is hard to use. Hell you must have figured it out so it has
to be easy.

Maybe you could also learn how to type your email address so
people can write or reply to you.


I dont care to have morons like you sending me email.

Anyway, what the hell is your problem? Do you really care if I and most
people dont like a program that you use? Or is it the fact that you said
you wrote a new program when in fact you just made a frequency file(big
deal people do it every day). I love a good flame war so I'll keep on
going if you want.

I agree Burr. I've had nothing but good luck with Winscan. I don't think I
have ever had it crash and as far as processor usage, right now I've got
Outlook Express and Winscan open and I'm only using 28% of my CPU. I have
to say that I think it also really adds to the enjoyment of scanning.

Dwayne,
Why don't you just say "I don't like Winscan" and let it go
at that!! Why bad mouth someone's stuff just because you are
having bad luck with it.
Some people like it and some don't.

Yes, I did send you their new number where they moved last
year and they posted right here on this news group about
their programs.

Now lets let it rest, maybe we'll both re-think our words.

That phone number from last year is no longer working!! and this is right
off there web-site:

"Technical support is currently available through E-Mail based support
only. (Retail and Shareware Versions)"

They do not have a phone number or street address listed anywhere on there
web-site... That alone should send up 50 red flags... but to each his own
if it works for you and you like it keep on trucking. It did not run on
anything we installed it on.
