Hello,

Thank you for taking the time for downloading SCNBAS10.zip.


This zip file contains the necessary files to install ScannerBase.

ScannerBase is a Radio Frequency Scanner organizer/database.

ScannerBase allows you to view all frequencies that are legally registered
with the FCC for any area in the United States in a table format. 

ScannerBase allows you to assign your Scanner channels to any frequency in 
the table. You can also add comments to the database. With one mouse click,
the frequency table reduces itself to just the frequencies that are in your 
scanner. At any time, you can filter the table such that certain frequencies 
in areas of the country are displayed. You can print out a report based on 
the display state you see in the table.  For example you could print a 
report of your scanner channels ordered by frequency in one city where 
the transmitting company name has the word Lumber in it.

The Database distributed with ScannerBase is made up of approximately 2 citys
near highly populated areas from each state in the US. This is approximately 
40,000 frequencies or 1000 pages of printout. See the ScannerBase help file 
for information about obtaining frequencies near you.

To install, place SCNBAS10.zip in an empty subdirectory. Unzip
SCNBAS10.ZIP using WINZIP or PKZ204g. The zip file has subdirectory 
information such that the unzipping process could be directed to five 
subdirectories called Disk1, Disk2, Disk3, Disk4, and Disk5. If you
want to back up the installation files to Floppies, you can copy the 
contents of each subdirectory to a 1.44 meg floppy disk.

To install ScannerBase, Run Setup.exe in the Disk1 subdirectory.

This program's status is shareware.

You can freely distribute this program to who ever you want as long as 
all original files remain together.

If upon installation, this program does not work, check the following:

If you are running Windows NT Version 4 SP3, Set your default printer to
a printer on LPT1. This is a known bug that I do not have the financial 
resources to fix at this point in time. This program does print to 
a networked printer on computers using Windows 95.

Check to see if you have the following file installed on your computer:
c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Dao\Dao3032.dll.
If you do not, please download another program that I wrote called 
ScanAc10.zip. This program installs the Microsoft Access for Office 95 
database drivers. ScannerBase uses the best features that I could find 
in programming languages from Borland and Microsoft to access data 
faster than Microsoft Access for Office 95.
