SOURCE: cant get a answer on how to program my pro-97 scanner

here is a quote from the manual; hope it helps you.


1. Press MAN, enter the bank (0-9) and channel number (00-
99) where you want to store a frequency, then press MAN
again. M and the bank and channel number appear at the
upper left corner of the display (for example: M000).
Press FUNC. Then press e or d. The bank number moves in
the direction of the arrow pressed.
Press FUNC. Then hold down e or d. The bank number
moves continuously in the assigned direction.
Press e. The channel number moves upward one by one.
Or, press d. The channel number moves downward one
by one.
2. Press PGM. M changes to P.
3. Use the number keys and ./DELAY to enter the frequency
(including the decimal point) you want to store.
If you make a mistake, press CL to delete a single digit or press
and hold CL about 2 seconds to delete all digits.
4. Press ENT to store the frequency into the channel.
If you made a mistake in Step 3, Invalid Freq. briefl y
appears and the scanner beeps when you press ENT. Start
again from Step 3.
Your scanner automatically rounds the entered frequency
to the nearest valid frequency. For example, if you enter a
frequency of 151.553, your scanner accepts it as 151.550.

SOURCE: FixYa and a scheme to get money

If you need a key for MS office that was pre-installed on your computer, but now the trial period has finished, you have 2 options
Buy a key from Microsoft.......
OR....AT YOUR OWN RISK..Uninstall the copy of office you have first.

Download a copy of Office from a torrent site. You will need a torrent client, there are loads but i use Utorrent http://www.utorrent.com/
Then look for and download a copy of office, here is a link to one, but feel free to find a different copy (It is illegal, so its up to you)

SOURCE: fixya makes it very hard to ask a simple question!

Here are some tips:
1. Locate the casting numbers on the block. This can be either behind the distributor on the engine, or near the starter. If you have to, use the wire brush and degreaser to clean the engine and see the number easier.
2. Note the first letter in the casting number. It's a letter to designate the year of manufacture of the part.

B - 1950s
C - 1960s
D - 1970s
E - 1980s
3. Note the second number in the casting number. This is for the last digit in the year. For example, a casting number starting with B8 was manufactured in 1958.
4. Note the third letter in the casting number. This is the model design of the vehicle.

A - Generic full-size ford
C - 1966 to 1975 Remanufactured part
D - Ford Falcon
E - Ford truck
F - Foreign market or Trans Am racing engine
G - '61 to '67 Comet or '68 to '76 Montego
H - '66 to '82 heavy truck or Holman Moody high performance parts
J - Industrial Ford model
L - Lincoln
M - Mercury
O - '67 to '76 Ford Torino and all Ford Fairlane
S - Ford Thunderbird
T - Truck
U - Econoline van
V - Lincoln
W - Mercury Cougar
Y - '62 to '72 Meteor (Canada model) and '75 to '81 Bobcat
Z - Mustang
6 - Pantera
5. Note the fourth letter in the casting number. If you're looking at a complete engine, it should be an "E."
6. Note the next four digits in the casting number, generally after a hyphen or space. This is the generic part number for the engine. This number should be between 6000 and 6898 for an engine base assembly.
7. Note the last letter in the number. This is the engineering version of the part, or the design change.

Good luck.

The 30 day free eval. period of my Photoshop CS 9 has expired. now I need an authorisation code to run it. Please help.

Hi there rcm911, and thanks for your quesiton. You have asked the question and I am here as a volunteer to provide you an answer. Occasionally, I find there are questions the answer to which the asker (you in this case) don't like. I hope this is not the case today. Please remember to not kill the messenger just because the answer is not to your liking. The answer is the answer and it was provided to you free of charge in under 300 seconds.

The way it works is this: They (the owners of Photoshop CS9) allow you to "test drive" their product for 30 days. You tested it for 30 days to see if it was something you liked and if it would work for you in your situation. Now the 30 days is up and you must make a decision. Is it for you? Will it work for you? Does it run on your computer? Will it produce 'hard copy' that is acceptable to you? Do you want to continue to use the product? Is it worth the asking price? Do you want to pay for it? Do you have the money? The simple answer is pay the money - they will send you the activation code. All the info you need and action you must take will appear on the screen. Life goes on.

If you are unhappy with it, it isn't what you expected, it costs too much compared to the value you will receive from it, it doesn't work on your computer etc., the simple answer is delete it from your computer. Look for another product that will do what you want it to do. Life goes on.

If you want someone to give you an activation code or if you want to "beat" the system, this is called stealing. If this is what you want, I encourage you to not pursue this avenue. If you see this kind of activity going on here at FixYa.com, I encourage you to report it; I do. This is not a pirate site.

Again, thank you for your question and your interest in FixYa.com

We have a new drilled well which still has orange mud in the filter after a month. The well driller now says it needs a liner for another $2500. Will this solve the problem?

Your asking a question that a geologist should answer but.... I will comment below.

There are a lot of variables that are unknown here. Is this a deep well or a shallow well?
Orange mud after a month hmmm.. It makes one wonder if they have the foot / check valve shoved into the mud? Has anyone tried shortening the pick-up line say 2 feet just to make sure the foot valve isn't in the mud? A couple of other experiences is to unhook the house plumbing and overboard the water until the well runs temporarily dry and visually inspect the well cavity for cave- ins. If there are no cave ins.... I would have my doubts on the liner fixing anything.

If it is a deep well obviously you can not visually inspect anything deep. BUT... you can overboard the water straight from the pump outlet. Most wells will clear up if you overboard water daily for 7 to 10 days until the pump stops pumping. If the foot valve is in the mud it may take many months to stop having orange mud in the filter. Unless your well is in some pretty soft dirt I do not think liner would be required... how ever... if you raise the foot valve 2 feed and still have orange muddy filters... you may have to go for the liner.

I would say the liner is the fix of last resort.
Plan of action:
1. Overboard water daily until the pump stops pumping. You may have to re-prime the pump but, if you wait 45 mins after shutting the pump off the water level should recover enough you do not have to prime the pump.
2. After 10 days or so of repeated ove- boarding sessions until the pump stops pumping... you still have the muddy orange stuff... RAISE the foot valve 2 feet (Someone may have to cut off the pipe 24 inches and re-thread it)
3. If you have done the above and still have the orange mud in the filter..... DO NOT allow the driller to install the liner without a guarantee. I would also stipulate that if it does not cure the mud issue he is going to pull out the liner and refund the cost for same. ( He will tell you... we can not pull out the liner ) If he knows he might have to pull it out.... He will make sure he can remove it!

Feel free to seek the advice of others. This is a who answered your question:

Being from Iowa and growing up on a farm and having wells drilled I pass along my experience. We also thawed long plumbing runs with welders in the winter time running 150 Amps DC end to end for several hours just so the cattle hydrant lines or home plumbing piping would thaw.

Thanks for choosing FixYa and again no worries if you seek other advice. Sometimes like in this situation... it just might be wise. I passed on what I would do if I were to show up on your door step and attempt to try and solve the orange mud / dirt problem you have.

This diverter was installed brand new 3 years ago and now will not divert entirely. Can't see anything really wrong with it inside. Would replace except that I have brass and it cost twice as much as...

Thanks for your question!

I'm sorry that you haven't received an answer yet.

The response rate on FixYa FREE questions is usually over 80%, but sometimes questions go un-answered when:
1. the question is unclear, incomplete, or poorly worded...
2. the question is mis-categorized - so the correct experts aren't viewing it...
3. the question requires an answer for something that cannot be explained online adequately...
4. specific training, tools, or equipment are required to avoid injury or death...
5. the Experts that are online simply don't have the resources to answer your question fully...

Please feel free to re-work your question if you feel one of these may be the reason.
Of course you are not required - but converting your question to a PAID one usually increases the reply rate as well.

Normal rates for FixYa are...
$ 9.99 answer for one question.
$12.99 Live Real-Time online chat or premium e-mail support.
$29.99 Live Real Time phone support
Sometimes FixYa will run specials for unlimited questions via monthly subscription or reduced rates for limited periods.


Consider the savings that can be had when an informed Expert can save you a $100 service call, or a $350 trip to the car dealership.
Your problem solved - guaranteed! Or your money back!!

If you don't want to pay - feel free to re-submit your question so it returns back to the top of the work queue if you still need help.

Thanks for using FixYa - a 4 THUMBS rating is appreciated for helping with your FREE question

Why are your retarded? No simple answer there?

what is wrong here is you asked for a model and manufacturer of an item that only you know what it is
it is up to the person asking the question to clearly understand that the responsibility to get a good answer lies with them as fixya site crystal balls are broken
It it was marked as inappropriate , it is wrong --it should have been marked as irrelevant
If you care to read the questions being asked and the natrocious spelling and grammar with a total lack of detail posted you will understand fixya site experts in trying to answer
