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.

Yes, will work mixed also.
I run mixed here in Florida with, 800 and 5800's in a stack.

Key differences are it uses KPG-D2, but it works the same as KPG109d.
Biggest gotcha with them is in Very narrow BW you have to hook up the Ref In and Out BNCs for it to work. well it works without it, but only if the Control channel is number 1. If you have it rollover it to 2 or 3 it will lock up and not work at all without those BNCs.
Source, i didn't do that and system worked ok in the shop for two days. installed on site and it doesn't work at all anymore. Kenwood says oh do this and it works fine now.
I think the only visual difference is it has a USB-B Port instead of a serial one.

800 and 5800 have the same VERSION, but are different.
Also, the trunking g option is part of the activation file for a system.
Not a firmware thing.
