• 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.

Just curious if Harris radios like the XG-75 or P7300 can scan talkgroups from two separate systems. For example, if you are on a Provoice system and want to scan channels or a P25 system in your radio can the radio jump back an forth between the two systems?

A Harris can not scan two different trunked systems at the same time. You can only scan within the selected (registered) system.

Can a Motorola APX8000 do this?
My understanding is that to scan across multiple (2,3,4 or more) p25 systems on different bands is that the scanning radio (whatever brand) has to log on to the p25 system, scan the channels selected, log off, log on to the next p25 system, scan the channels, log off, log on to the next system, etc. making the p25 system's administrator go crazy with the logging on, logging off multiple times a minute.
Is this correct?
Thanks,

Can I create a scan list with analog conventional channels and P25 trunked channels? Or does that constitute two different systems?

Based on some of the answers in this post that was specific to HARRIS radios, I would suggest moving your question about. APX8K to the Motorola forum.
