  • WebBuddy from WD5EAE. Enables user to scan web based frequency lists and import the results to Win500

Rebanding Support

  • If you have a premium subscription, software that supports the web service, most likely, will download the correct system type and custom tables automatically.
  • Be sure to examine the database entry for your system first. If the system is a Motorola type;
    • If the system voice says APCO-25 Common Air Interface Exclusive then reprogram using just the control channels. On most scanners, Control Channel Only mode is the default when working on these systems. Note that neither the PSR-310 nor the PSR-410 can receive this type of system.
    • The PSR-310 and PSR-410 cannot decode any talkgroups with a 'D' in the mode column. These are digital in nature.
    • If the system voice says anything else, look at all the frequencies. If the 4th decimal position is a '5' in every frequency, then you may be able to reprogram without firmware updates or a custom table. If any of the frequencies have a '0' then updating the scanner will be required to properly track this system
  • EDACS type systems will only need to be reprogrammed with the new rebanded frequencies. No firmware fixes are required to track these systems.

Making the Connection

A major difference from other scanners is that the connection to the PC is made via USB, and not a serial cable. The RS scanners do not supply this cable as part of the accessories, but there are places to obtain them. Coding editors for mac.

Is your bathroom tired, outdated or just not working for your family dynamics anymore?
Have you recently bought a property and the bathroom is just not quite to your taste?

Bathroom remodelling is one of the first renovation projects homeowners consider when looking to upgrade their homes.

A renovated bathroom can breathe a new lease of life into your home and there are many ways in which it can be achieved, from replacing an over bath shower to a spacious walk in wet room shower to upgrading sanitary-ware or a full remodelling taking it back to the studs and creating a completely new space.
