Scanner Buff! Radio Frequency Database
Copyright 1989-90
All Rights Reserved
Robert W. Ricci
Congratulations on receiving one of the first release database sets
for Scanner Buff! and Scanner Buff! On-Line, the BBS door version.
Within this archive you will find two files:
LACO*.MDF
LACO*.DBT
These files contain a great deal of information concerning the greater
Los Angeles County area. These database files are very accurate, and
in fact, contain information that hasn't even been published yet! I
can't tell you how tired my fingers are!!!
This is part one of a set of two. There is no overall logic to the
content of the file, however, when mated with the alternate portion of
the set they completely cover the county. They are being distributed
seperately in order to reduce the size of the files.
INSTALLATION:
Place both files in a directory that can be called by Scanner Buff! or
Scanner Buff! On-Line. IMMEDIATELY open the data file from the File
Menu and perform a reindex operation in order to produce the mandatory
index files. Failure to do so will cause a fatal error and you will
abort. Having completed this necessary step, your file is now ready
for viewing. Completely indexed, this MEGA File takes approximately 1
megabyte of disk space (hence the name). You do not need both parts
of the set on disk at the same time. This is important if running a
floppy-only system. If so, you will need at least a 720k diskette.
Smaller files are available to registered users of Scanner Buff! and
Scanner Buff! On-Line at no charge... just send me a blank, formatted
360k or 720k diskette, along with a stamped, self-addressed mailer and
they're yours for the asking.
Users of unregistered versions may also request MEGA Files, however,
there is a fee of $7.50 per disk... it pays to register your copy of
Scanner Buff!
For more information, or to request other MEGA Files, I may be

MEGA Files are available for all California areas.
