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.  73  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.
