- of radio frequencies for use with a scanner. The program is NOT in
- the public domain. If you use the program beyond 30 days, you must

- users will receive updates to the program as well as a data file
- with over 6,000 listings.
-

- Using the Program -
- You will find that using the program is extremely easy. Everything
- is menu driven. You may look through the data in a variety of sort
- orders - by Name, by Service (e.g. police, fire, aircraft), by
- Frequency, by City, by County, or by State. Reports can also be
- printed in any of there sort orders.
-
- When you select an order, you will find a table of the existing
- data. You will notice an item marked "Quick Jump". This allows
- you to jump to a specific point in the data table immediately. You
- do not have to use this. You may scroll through the data file by
- using the cursor keys as well as page-up and page-down. When you
- find the item you are seeking, you may:
-
- o View/Edit it by pressing Enter. This will display the full
- record. Reaching the bottom of the record or pressing
- control-enter saves your changes. Escape will take you out of
- the record.
-
- o Delete it by pressing Del or Delete key. You will be prompted
- to be sure you want to delete this record. Deletions are
- permanent and may not be recovered.
-
- If you wish to add a new item, press Ins or Insert key. This will
- display the full record for entering information. Reaching the
- bottom of the record or pressing control-enter saves your data.
- Escape will take you out of the record. Note: data may be entered
- from any table/sort order.
-
- Note: The following fields are mandatory:
- Name
- Service
- Frequency
- City
- County
- State
-
- You will notice that Service is a "look-up" field. If you put a
- service that is not in the data base or leave it blank, a list of
- valid services will pop-up. You may add a service to the list at
- that time.
-
- To return to the menu from the table, press control-esc.
-
-
- Utilities -
- The utilities menu allows you to modify or add to the list of
- services. Adding, editing and deleting the data is the same as
- above.
-
- Printing -
- All reports should print on any printer capable of printing the
- full IBM character set. If your printer is not capable of this,
- let me know at the time of registration and I will make the
- necessary modification.
-
- Questions and Support -
- Questions will be addressed via e-mail on Compuserve. Address any
- questions to Jay Levine (73720,3233).

- here, it is not an indication that it is legal to monitor that
- frequency. That is the responsibility of the listener.
