I watched so many video and tutorials but of course everything starts from your super lucky situation of a huge database just organized. My question is: how would you organize your scanner in this situation? I mean: the favourite lists should be related to a place? Or it's better to consider the departments as geographical list? Could someone put an example on how you... Read more View article »

It just seems to load them and then they drop out because when I reconnect the scanner to ARC it shows no favourites in the scanner. I then have to upload again from Sentinel to scanner. Thanks.

04-29-25 Unexpected antenna impedance difference Hello, Homemade BLUE bowtie antenna vs factory made BLACK whole board with the same bowtie antenna. Over 300 - 330 MHz range I am seeing some ~20 change in reactance... 04-29-25, 03:26 am Hello, Homemade BLUE bowtie antenna vs factory made BLACK whole board with the same bowtie antenna. Over 300 - 330 MHz range I am seeing some ~20 change in reactance with the home made antenna and ~50 ohm with the factory made. Also the resistance is 7-8 times greater for the factory made antenna and varies much more over the frequency range. Sames: - placement of the antenna - calibration place, cables, balun and others related (*) Diffs: - calibration range: 300-330 for home made vs... Read more View article »
04-29-25 Butel re-orders pasted frequencies??? Hello.

Perhaps I missed this in the owner's manual, but when I paste frequencies into the ARC-R15 program it automatically re-orders the frequencies into numerical sequence from the lowest frequency to the highest. I want it to maintain the order from the .CSV file that I'm copying from as I have them organized as I prefer with UHF frequencies sprinkled in amongst VHF freqs. I've tried using Butel's CSV import function as well as copying a column of frequencies straight out of Excel but I... Read more View article »
