If you are in the market for software for a radio scanner, you're in luck. There is a wide variety of possibilities to choose from. The Internet allows you to search over a wide geographical and commercial area, which gives you a greater range of choice. With the increase in technology, scanners can have up to 1000 channels; good software, then, becomes important to navigating that traffic.
Instructions
1. Determine which brand of radio scanner you have bought, or want to buy. There is a range of software that you can buy depending on which model of which radio you have, and, as in computer software, how much functionality you want to enjoy. Some "lite" programs can cost you upwards of $25.00, while the "pro" or advanced programs can cost upwards of $70.00.
2. Find a website or a store where your radio scanner is serviced. It is likely that such sites or places will have the software available for you. If you can't find a place through your local phone directory, the websites for your product will likely have a store locater feature that you can use.
3. Compare the various types of software that are available for your scanner. Features include elements to make radio navigation easier, data importation from PC, showing maps, and storing latitude and longitude coordinates.
4. Compare various brands and units before buying your radio. You can choose from Bearcat, Radio Shack and AOR, among others, though those brands tend to stand out from the rest of the pack as some of the best that can be had.
