• 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 everyone. i recently downloaded a trunking system from radio reference by way of freescan. once you download the system to a window it displays the word primary on the left side of this window for san bernardino ca system 9 and simulcast for several other system from san bernardino. once i download this system to my scanner it displays these same words in the scanner window while scanning and i cannot trunk any of the channels or frequencies if i am saying this correctly. how can i fix this issue so i can hear the talkgroups instead of only seeing the word primary or simulcast in the scanner window when scanning. thank you for any help.

Welcome to RR. As per the notes at the top of this forum, this is a specific scanner and trunking system question. It should be posted in the CA forum. However, It seemed to load OK for me. It sounds like you did not check any of the talkgroup boxes on the right side of the download window.
To help with further questions, please click on the User CP link above, and edit you details to include your city and state. You did mention in the body of your msg this time, but you will not have to do that again if you add it to your profile. Also, you did not mention your scanner type. This may make a difference in how to better answer your question.
