• 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.

Good day!

Can you help me? I have a IC-F9511, it was gave to me as gift, and I can´t program the radio because there is an PASSWORD nobody knows! How can I reset or reinstall software in this radio, so it can become alive again.

I dissassembled the radio, searching for some eeprom os something that I could read and check the password, but could find any due to lack of information If there is any eeprom at all.

I am in Brazil, and this kind of information here are very difficult to find.

Regards;

...from what I gather, you most certainly are going to have to send the radio to Icom where they'll have to replace an ic.

Best bet is to go to icomamerica.com and navigate yourself to the tech support section for lmr products and call the tech support line. Talk to a tech and he'll tell you exactly what needs to be done.
