Radio Simulators
----------------
To help you get started with Scan*Star quickly, several "pseudo radio"
drivers that simulate the actions of a typical scanner and a typical HF
communications receiver. These pseudo drivers support all applicable
Scan*Star features, so you'll see everything right away without having
to hassle with cables, serial ports, etc. Of course, all of the standard
drivers are included in the demo package, so you can use a real radio if
you want to.
Product Overview
----------------
Todays high capacity scanners and communications receivers have given the
radio monitor the difficult task of managing large amounts of information.
In crowded metropolitan areas, this can be a nightmare!
Scan*Star makes this job easy by combining a number of advanced software
technologies to form a professional quality package that is easy to use
and low in cost.
Requirements
------------
Industry standard 100% compatible PC 386/486/586 with 4 MEG RAM, hard
disk, VGA display and OS/2 v3.0 (Warp) or DOS 5.0 or later. Operation
in full screen DOS under Windows is not supported. Serial ports and
cables are required for each device connected. Some radios require a TTL
to RS-232 converter, check your radio documentation for details.
Also Available: Scan*Star Professional
--------------------------------------
The Scan*Star Professional Edition is also available. This edition has
many of the features of Scan*Star Commercial, but does not have mouse
support, multiple receiver scanning modes, multiple scan windows or
the graphical scan window. Demo copies of the Professional Edition are
available on the Scan*Star BBS, Compuserve and Genie.
