• 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.

Need help with the programming. I need to reprogram about 300 radios due to a programming error. I have the system key file, but it keeps erroring out, saying "No system key file having the same system parameters as configured for NXDN Trunking System Zone was found" We are using the same software, the same computer, and the same radios, actually the computer was not used since the last time we programmed radios last school year. LItterlaly nothing has changed.

Check and see if the 111/141/D1 sees the skf to begin with. Open the program, and with a blank default, go to edit, network, system, and see if your system is in the drop down box. If it is not, then you need to tell the program where the skf is. If it is there, and you see it, see if you can open a saved .dat file of your radios. Only option you have if you can't read them, write over what's there. If you password protected them make sure you have that code, otherwise you're SOL.

Otherwise, you need the yellow or blue key to make your skf, to your program serial number, 111K....... 141K........ or D1 it's alphanumeric.

4.97 firmware update would be a something to throw in them too.
