• 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.

I have been looking at the woxun new dual bander HT and was wondering if anyone has one or has played with one?

As of current I know someone who has a KG-699E and they seem like a fairly good HT based upon price.

The question I do have is that the other models have 2 Tone/5 Tone/MSK options along with encryption. Now I would also use this as a Rx for some business/public safety stuff so I would need the tone signalling and encryption capability even though the main purposes is an Amateur HT.

So has anyone played with this HT yet.


In addition has anyone played with the Puxing 777 or 888. Does it have singalling and encrypt features. also does it offer an alpha-numeric display???

I've played with several different Wouxun and Puxing HT's.

If you want an exercise in programming frustration or poor TX audio (i.e. muffled, under-deviated, etc), then be my guest. Otherwise, my .02 would be to stay away. Spend a few extra dollars and purchase a proper HT.
