Radio control software organized by receiver manufacturer. Links to locations where data files for some of these applications may be found in our Programming Files article. For non-Windows environments, please see our Scanner/Receiver Software for Non Windows OS article.
As newer PCs don't have serial ports, connections must be made between the scanner and the PC through USB. This can present some difficulties in understanding how to configure the connection correctly. Please see our Connecting scanners via USB article for more information.
