Recommended Accessories
When people invest good money for a scanner, they probably want to protect it, get some accessories to go with it or
otherwise add to the experience. Scanner Master (http://www.scannermaster.com.) has a full line of scanner accessories such
as cases, antennas, cables, power adaptors and references to make your scanner more enjoyable.
Probably the most important accessory will be a copy of the ARC310 software, which is available at
http://www.scannermaster.com. If you're going to program this scanner on your own, or even if you have Scanner Master or a
friend do the programming for you, it's a great benefit to back up a copy of the programming to your PC. Furthermore, once
you've backed it up, you might also want a copy that you can tweak and add to over time as you get more familiar with the
scanner and scanning. Then you can tailor the programming just for your tastes. The software is easy to use and extremely
powerful and it will help you understand all that the radio can do.
Many of the accessories for the other GRE and Radio Shack scanners will work for the PSR310 as well. Here are a few that
you might be interested in:
Cases: Spend this much on a radio and you will want to protect it from scratches, drops and dings. Nylon and soft leather
cases are available.
Mobile Power Cord: A DC cord with cigarette lighter plug is available from Scanner Master..
You can also buy an assortment of remote speakers (amplified or not), headphones, antennas and more. Just go to
