| − | You have several options here; but probably your best one (at least to get started) is to start reading the following;
| |
| − | | |
| − | #On the wiki home page, there's a section called 'Links for Newcomers'. In there, you will find links to articles called [[Trunking Basics]], [[Common Conventional Programming Questions]] and [[Common Trunking Programming Questions]]. Bookmark the [[:Category:RR Glossary|Glossary]] as it has links to definitions of hundreds of scanning related terms. In addition, you will need a serial-USB converter to connect the scanner to your PC, unless you have an older one that actually has a serial port. The [[Connecting scanners via USB]] article discusses this in great detail.
| |
| − | #Further down on the wiki home page, in the 'Popular Topics' section, click on the link for the [[Uniden DMA FAQ]]. Read the first 3 articles
| |
| − | #Download/read the Easier to Read manual for the 396XT, the link for which is at the bottom of the DMA FAQ.
| |
| − | #Go get a copy of the freeware [http://scannow.org FreeScan] - the [[FreeScan User Guide]] will go a long way to help you understand the software.
| |
| − | #Go to our forums for additional help. Software questions should go to the Software forum, Uniden scanner related questions should be placed in the Uniden forum, and we have lots of forums- by state. Be sure to go to the User CP and state where you are - county/state will do. Let folks know that you have FreeScan and a 396XT. As you will discover, FreeScan has its own set of forums, so any questions related to that software should be placed there for faster responses.

| − | Lots of reading here, but necessary. Going to the forums is important - not everyone knows these talk pages are here. Please post your questions as I've outlined, and there will be lots of folks here who can help.
