Bruce, as a long time Perseus user, yes, there are a number of 3rd party
scheduling softwares. We've asked Nico, the developer for years for a
native scheduler, without any success. The various 3rd party schedulers
I've tried were never 100% reliable, until a very simple one called Mestor,
which is the only one I now use. Downside is, that you can't run Perseus

For the record, I'm running the Excalibur (G31) using the software written
for the Excalibur Pro (G33). A couple of years ago, someone on the
Winradio YG wrote a dll file that allows you to use this lashup and take
advantage of features that are in the G33 software that aren't in the G31
software. One of the differences between the two is the ability to do
spectrum recordings. The G31 SW only allows you to schedule recordings for
single frequencies. I've been using the G33 version of the software so long
that I'd totally forgotten about the limitation in the G31 version.
The other possibility is to use third party scheduling software with the
G31 software, like the guys in PEI did. I tried that approach with mixed
success when I first started using the Excalibur. For a while, my
antivirus software thought the scheduling software was malicious and
deleted it on several occasions! I solved the problem by switching to a
different antivirus package.
The Perseus native software seems to lack any scheduling function, but
third party software has been written to take care of that limitation. At
least that's my conclusion after using the receiver for the past three
days. Hopefully one of the Perseus owners on this list will clarify that
point.
