Frequency Manager 1.05 for Windows 5/10/94
Frequency Manager 1.05 for Windows is a database program designed to help
organize and manage radio frequencies that amateur radio operators and
scanner enthusiasts use. With Frequency Manager you can store, sort, print,
and search for frequencies. Frequency Manager uses the Paradox Engine to
manage its database. Since, Paradox is becoming a corporate standard file
format your data can easily be used by other programs. Plus, Frequency
Manager lets you import and export text files for other applications that
don't support Paradox files directly. Each Frequency List file has 9 fields.
They are Class, Service, Frequency, Mode, Call Sign, Note, Brief, Last
Monitored Date, and Rating. The Note field is especially helpful. You
enter the name of a text file into the Note field. Then when you want to
view the text file you simply press the Edit Note button that starts your
favorite text editor with the text file loaded. You can then enter
free-from notes into the text file. For example, you could have a file
called FWFD.TXT that is entered into the Note field. When you press the
Edit Note button Window's NotePad program loads the FWFD.TXT file which
contains detailed information on the Fort Worth Fire Department. The
information might include district information, unit designations, and
fire department jargon and codes. For more information please choose help
from the menu and then select "Overview". Help is always a keystroke or
button away.
