vx-10 vhf

[kb0zgy]

Hello, I just picked up some vx-10 vhf models and would like to find the programing software if someone knows where to get it. I called vertex and they said it is not available anymore . The software is CE-14, and also is the programing cable the standard 4 ring 1/8" plug.

Thanks

You can probably find the cable on eBay or buy one from RT Systems (RT Systems Radio Programming Software). The Yaesu FT-50 cable will do the job.

Search around on the web for the program. It's a DOS program. You'll need a computer that runs DOS or that you can boot into DOS. Running the program from a DOS box in Windows won't work.

Because you will be running in DOS, don't plan on using a USB port on the computer. You'll probably need a real serial port.

You can program that model through the keypad. You can make a dongle out of aluminum foil.
