When you are a newcomer, and want to use software to program and/or back up the contents of your scanner, the natural question is 'which is the best'? While it's always true that the 'best' software is in the eye of the user, generally speaking there are some packages that are much more popular than others.

Scancat Lite Plus has been visible for awhile now, and it's used in some RS stores to program scanners they sell. However, as documented on several occasions in the various RR forums, it's not the best choice, in most cases. This article lists the most popular packages, by scanner, in use by RR members. In general, the most popular choices tend to support connecting to the RadioReference database and downloading data directly. To enable this function you must have a premium subscription which you can read about in the link.

Those packages that have this ability are shown in bold. If no other packages exist to support this scanner, there will be no entry.

Radio Shack

Uniden

Non DMA Scanners


DMA Scanners

Notes

  • Most DMA scanners are supported by the Uniden UASD or Uniden Advanced System Director. This is available from the Uniden downloads area.
  • ARC software with no link is available from the BuTel homepage. All BuTel software is available from Scanner Master.
  • Scan Control works with all Uniden scanners except the 3500 and BC95XLT
