Scan125 Control Program
Suite 
Supported Scanners: Uniden UBC125XLT, BC125AT, UBC126AT and
Albrecht AE126H
The Scan125 Control Program is currently Freeware
with a Careware/Charity status
and objective. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Careware).
Please Donate to my
supported charity which I would very much appreciate, as will they,
and will keep me developing and supporting the programs.
The Scan125 Control Program Suite
consists of two programs. Then main Scan125 Control Program and the Scan125Convert Utility Program.
The project started in November 2013 with the first public non beta
release in April 2014. Since then Scan125 has been regularly
developed and supported into the product you see today with many of the
features and functions being implemented in response to user
requests. Since it's inception and release it has supported
scanning real time control and virtual console/display function.
Up to 25 August 2018 Scan125 had achieved over 3500
registered users in 57 countries. Since then and with V2.5.0.0 onwards the
free registration is no longer required. The number of
users will no doubt continue to grow and is a very welcome endorsement
of the program's growth and equally important the feedback and
encouragement I have received from so many people. Thank you all!
It would be really great to be world famous and earn millions of
pounds from doing crappy software but it is not going to happen so
until I win the lottery I'll have to be poor and boring.

Scan125 Current Release
Information
Note! I check all my software before uploading with Malwarebytes
Pro and Microsoft Windows Defender Antivirus. In addition I use
VirusTotal.com to confirm as they have over 60 scanner engines.
Despite these actions you may find that your AntiVirus/Security
software may flag my software. This is because I use a source
protection obfuscator which confuses them. Please report to me
via Email any cases where you find any issue with downloading my
software. When I receive such reports I download
myself and revalidate. I then contact the anti virus software
vendor with a false positive report. It can take them 48
hours or longer to process and update their definitions.
Meanwhile you can also use VirusTotal.com for yourself and decide if
you want to create an exception in your software.

Scan125
Control Program 
(for Uniden UBC125XLT, BC125AT/UBC126AT and
Albrecht AE125H Scanners)
Please Donate to my
supported charity which I would very much appreciate, as will they,
and will keep me developing and supporting the programs.
The Program is currently Freeware
(see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeware)
with a Careware/Charity status
and objective (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Careware).
It operates with no limitations. The author reserves the right to
change the program status and limitations on any future release.
Existing releases will retain their status and your right to use them
but support may not be available.
The Uniden UBC125XLT is a European region orientated scanner. The
BC125AT is the equivalent US reqion orientated scanner. The
UBC126AT is the equivalent Australia/New Zealand region orientated
scanner. They are very similar but not identical. The
Albrecht AE125H scanner is a licensed and branded clone of the Uniden
UBC125XLT scanner for the European market..
This program supports the UBC125XLT, BC125AT, UBC126AT and AE125H
scanners. I must be point out that as I do not have the BC125AT,
UBC126AT and AE125H scanners I have relied on people who have these
scanners being very helpful in testing and reporting issues. If
you find a problem/issue with any of the supported scanners then
*please* let me know so I can try and resolve it.
Scan125 written in Visual Basic and .NET V4.5. The program is
currently portable and will run from any "user" directory it is placed
in. It also currently makes no registry changes or any other
system changes, no required network connections etc. so is benign in
nature and operation and protects your privacy. If a Windows
system directory, like Program Files, is chosen then administrator
rights will have to be assigned to the program. For security
reasons it is suggested/recommended that a User directory is chosen.
The program also makes no hidden calls home and will not automatically
check for program updates by default. There are however some
functions that the user can manually invoke which will make a URL
connection to my Scan125 website. Also a program option can be
set to allow it to check my websites for updates every "n" days, as set by user.
The Program also requires the installation of the Uniden_Universal_Driver USB/serial
driver which is available for download on this site.
For
Apple PC/MAC users using BOOTCAMP, PARALLELS or VMware to run Windows
then from Version 1.8.0.0 of the Scan125 Control Program you
should be able to run Scan125 on your system. If not then please
let me know.
