need info ltr system

[captaincab]

hey folks I know a little bit about Motorola systems and scanner but I have a few questions on a what I believe is a kenwood ltr system I say it's kenwood because the majority of the radios are kenwood with a few vertexs thrown in it is a vhf 150mhz system. so first am I correct to assume it is a kenwood system? second what do I need to program a radio on this system if I buy the radio and software from kenwood I have the frequency info and the home channel list ltr id list and something called a area code it is a single digit what else do I need ?

First you would need the Kenwood radio with a trunking board, second you would need to contact the radio system's administrator, for the .skf file that would allow your radio to be part of the system. You cannot program your radio to the system without the .skf file. some systems have a security feature that will dead-beat disable your radio, if you try to "hack" the system. If you have a legit reason to be on the syste, then contact the administrator, and your good to go. Otherwise, stick to your scanner

basically I am tired of paying someone else to program radios for my cabs the system owner is ok with me doing this I just hate paying the radio shop guy and since the system owner is an almost 2 hour drive from my shop it doesn't pay to have him program it himself so I need a skf file and the correct software of course thank you for your help.
