   -->>> Pocket PC 2003/2005 (Windows Mobile 2003/2005) devices use the ARM4 CAB file
    
3. Using My Computer on your PC, copy the CAB file from your PC to the \My Documents\ folder in your Pocket PC.
    
4. Using File Explorer on your Pocket PC, locate the CAB file and click on it. This will execute the program and install CTR-Rcvr on your Pocket PC. Once the install is complete, the CAB file will be automatically deleted.
   
   NOTE: You will probably get a message indicating that the program won't display properly because it was designed for a previous version of Windows Mobile software. Ignore this warning, it is a Microsoft bug in 2003.
    
5. The CAB file will create a new folder on the Pocket PC called \Program Files\CTR-Rcvr\ and will copy the program, drivers, and audio .WAV files into that folder. It will also add a CTR icon to your Programs menu.
    
6. Once the program has been installed, use File Explorer on your Pocket PC to create a data folder in the \My Documents\ folder. This folder will be used to store your frequency list and log files.
