To import shapefiles into RadioCompass you first need to make sure you have them in the following format (the later versions of ArcGIS do not use this format by default):

Projection: Geographic (Latitude/Longitude)
Datum: WGS84
Planar Units: Arc Degrees

Once the shapefile is in the proper format, you can begin the import process.

Open RadioCompass
Go to Propagation Studies, Add Propagation Study (Advanced)

Choose a Country and Band, press OK

Right-Click on the map and choose Layer

Right-Click on Vector Layer and choose Setup Vector Data

This screen is where you will choose your shapefile and what you wish its name to be.

You will need to restart RadioCompass for the changes to take affect.
