If you have a single floppy drive and no hard disk
drive, you need to create programming disks. The rea-
son for this is that there is not adequate space on the
backup disk(s) for storing radio files. If your com-
puter has dual floppy disk drives, the backup disk can
be placed in one drive and then the radio files stored
on a disk in the second drive.

puter has dual floppy disk drives, the backup disk can

on a disk in the second drive.
To make a programming disk, format a blank disk
using FORMAT B: or FORMAT B: /S (use "/S" if it
must be a bootable disk). Then copy the required pro-
gram file or files to the programming disk. To do this,
type COPY A:(filename.ext) B:(filename.ext). For
example, to copy the file 2004pgm2.exe from drive A
to drive B, type
must be a bootable disk). Then copy the required pro-
gram file or files to the programming disk. To do this,
type COPY A:(filename.ext) B:(filename.ext). For
example, to copy the file 2004pgm2.exe from drive A
to drive B, type
COPY A:2004pgm2.exe B:2004pgm2.exe
This procedure works for either single or dual drive
computers. Refer to your computer reference manual
for more information on these DOS commands.

The programming software is shipped in a com-
pressed format. The name of the compressed file is
2000pgm2.exe and it extracts the following files so the
program can be used on a PC.

The 2004PGM2.EXE file is self extracting which
means that the files extract automatically when exe-
cuted. To extract these files so the program can be
used, first make the current directory the destination
directory for these files. For example, to make it the
\RADIOPRG directory on drive C: (if not the current
directory), type C: (Return) and then CD \RADIOPRG
as just described. To make it the disk in drive B:, sim-
ply type B:. Then insert the program disk in drive A:
and type A:2004PGM2 (or B: 2004PRM2 if drive B:
is being used). The program files are automatically
extracted into the current directory or disk.

3.2.2 MINIMUM FREE MEMORY REQUIRED
Approximately 560K of free conventional mem-
ory is required to run this program (use the CHKSK or
MEM command to display the amount of free mem-
ory). If you have at least 640K of memory and not
enough is available, there may be other programs that
are also being loaded into conventional memory. Con-
tact Customer Service for information on how these
programs can be moved or disabled to make more
space available.
