new member with software question

[William]

Hello guys,

New member, long time scanner listener, well, truth be told, I just pulled it out from about a 6 year hiatus.

So I want to at least dump the freqs I have loaded into a spreadsheet, solved the data cable conversion issue today, but am not having much luck with the data transfer. I downloaded the bc245xlt software that's in the files section but it doesn't seem to be working for me. It that out of date and no longer functional?

I'm running Windows XP (still) is there a software (free) program that works well? I would ultimately love to watch/scan on the computer screen. But at this point I would just like to get the frequencies dumped so I can see what is where, it's been a long time.

Thanks in advance!
Have a great weekend!
Bill Mitchell

Ok, trying 2.4.3 on XP and I'm getting the following error:

"Component MSWINSCK.OCX or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid."

My system is stable and should be working fine.  Any ideas how to proceed?  It gives this error whether or not I have the scanner connected and in "PCCON" mode.

Thanks again.
Bill

You have to install 2.4.1 first as 2.4.3 only replaces some of the files and doesn't do the install routine to register the VBA activeX Comm. components. You can do it manually at a command prompt

Hello,

Where do I find 2.4.1?   All I can find is the 2.4.3.

I'm also trying a program called Control Freq, but having no luck there either.
Thanks,
Bill

2.4.3 is (AFAIK) the latest version. You don't need 2.4.1. :)

I understand that 2.4.3 is an update only, to 2.4.1, not a full install.  Am I wrong?  Or just (as usual) confused) lol.

You are correct. :-[
I have both the 2.4.1 setup file and the 2.4.3 program file in a zipfile,
which I can send you on request (its a little over 2 MB).

Would you mind sending it my way too? I want to try a fresh install on another computer with a different copy of the progs to see if I can eliminate a couple of glitches.
