Be sure to check the article for the specific receiver you are researching; dedicated software for that receiver is often listed there. Anything in bold has additional ham transceiver related functionality.
Also see our Amateur Radio Transceiver Control article for additonal packages.
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.
