Welcome to the forum. Sure is a nice scanner and can be difficult to use without the software.

So do I need to be a premium member to do it? And is it easier to program than the using the uniden software ?

Luke it doesn't really matter if it is the Uniden software or Freescan, they are fundamentally the same, there maybe slightly different layouts and terminology but you will still need to know how your radio works. If I can ask, what state are you in? And don't say confusion please.

Basically forget about the police. PMR is Private Mobile Radio or non trunking radio. The GRN being trunking. I will PM you.
