You can download it straight from MOL if you don't want to wait for the disc.

I ordered CPS for Astro25 Mobile, and it said it was backordered until April as well.

However, I did get it Friday in the mail! Online it is marked as shipped, yet still says available in April.

FYI these later editions of CPS will not allow the god old wideband settings. Stick with versions prior to late December.

I was told that they are NOT selling any but the lastest verison which is 8.5.

I did receive it on line from them yesterday and the disc will arrive when it becomes available.

Thanks to those of you who helped me in this endeavor.

Astro25 CPS R19 still allows wideband unless you have the narrowband flashcode in your radio.

R8.5 of the TRBO CPS does force narrowband. The only way to program wideband channels is with an EID.

I received my disc by FEDEX this afternoon. I am very happy with the service so far.
