• 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.

Hello!

Working on some APX 8000 XE radios... and am being tasked with added Call Alerts with QC-II and a Tone Set. I'm also added a tone-set onto the call alert as the automatic timeout is set to 2 minutes. However, I don't know which Alert Tone is which! Does anyone know what type of sounds the following listed Alert Tones for APX Tone Signaling sound like? Or can anyone point me in the right direction?
Standard
Continuous
Tone 1
Tone 2
Tone 3
Tone 4
Tone 5
Tone 6
Tone 7
Tone 8
I suppose I could just send a radio test out 10 times, but I'm sure local FD members would not like that, nor do I really have the patience for that, so any help is appreciated.

They are the same as the Minitor V/VI tones, which can easily be found online.

Does the programming allow for custom alert tones similar to the Minitor 6?
