• 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 all,

I am looking for a creditable place to buy a G4, any recommendations? I would also like to get the base amplifier as well at some point. Scannermaster is out of stock and Unication shows out of stock as well. Does it typically come with the programming software and is it extremely difficult to program?

Thanks!

East Coast Pagers Phil (@w2lie) does a great job with support and guiding you through the process.


I've bought my G4 and G5 from him and was very pleased with price and delivery and here is what others said...

I second Ray's Pager Sales. Good seller and fast shipping. I didn't need any help setting up the G4, but Ray is always helping people with these pagers.

I also had great experience with Ray. He's very active on Facebook too. Phil has been very helpful in this forum. I think you couldn't go wrong with either of them.

I'm not sure anyone answered the question about programming software - that can be downloaded for free from https://www.unicationusa.com/gseriespps . There is a bit of a learning curve, but it's not too bad. There are some YouTube videos about it, and you should be able to get help in this forum. Reading the history of this forum would reveal a lot too.

My vote goes to Wolfe Communications.
Sam and Tami Wolfe, down home hospitality, honest and fair.
Bought my first G5 through them several years ago. Shipped it after chatting with them.
Just asked me to send them my payment when it was received. I couldn't believe that.

In fact you can download the PPS software and start working with it now, before you get the pager! It’s not too difficult and what questions I had were answered here on RR!

I also recommend Ray's Pager Sales. Which system(s) do you want to monitor?

Ray's Pager Sales. I bought two G-4's and a amplified base charger from Ray. Great customer service.
He also programmed my county for me into the G-4's.

Ray's Pager. I purchased my G5 and the amp charger through him with awesome follow up and support. I suggest to purchase a desk or amp charger with your unit as the charging mechanism in these pagers are fragile. There are number of unication programing videos on U-tube.
