• To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:

    Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.

    If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.

    To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.

    The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.

    For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).

    This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

I am new to the EF Johnson series of radios and managed to snag a brand new in the box 700/800 5100ES radio with version 6.16.3 installed and am looking at which version of PC Configure I would need to program the radio. I have managed to locate V2.10.2 but would really like to use the correct one. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am not asking for the software, I just would like to know which version of PC Configure is correct for this version of radio.

Give EF Johnson a call for software. Asking for it on these forums is not allowed.

Read the OP's first post, he's trying to figure out which versions. Not everyone is trying to hack software for free.

According to my decoder ring, you need 2.14.x or higher; 2.18.x recommended. I've also sent you a PM with the matrix on this.
