For hooking up the cable and getting the scanner to go into RMT mode, see pages 63-71 in the manual. We have a PDF copy of the manual in the files section of this group.

Additionally, most PCs these days doesn't come with a serial port - you will need a USB-serial converter to do the job. There is a wiki article that describes the procedure of installing these - it's set up for XP but should only be slightly different for Vista...

In addition to RadioReference (this site has both an extensive database and state by state forums including one for Utah), there is a very nice little scanning wiki for Utah here...

> Thank you all for your comments and help.  I really do appreciate your advice and input.  It sounds like the best thing for me is to try and input the frequencies by hand.  I do have a cable that hooks to my computer and I guess I thought it would be auto when I hooked it up, but I was wrong.  (I'm not too tech smart.) I'll search and find the frequencies I need on the internet for the Utah area.  If any of you have great sources that you would share, I'd be grateful!  Thanks again!
