• 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.

LTR or not LTR?

I have a couple of frequencies in my area, and when I hear them in conventional mode, all you hear is, key-up, key-up, key-up, non-stop. This is like at least every second to two.

Once in a while it will have a longer sounded "key-up" but normally, it's sounds like someone is just sitting there with an HT pressing the PTTY talk button every 2 seconds, not feeling like talking LoL.

The odd part is, it never seems to trip either my BCT15 or BR330T into LTR when it's programmed as LTR or just in search mode, when it easily finds LTR on systems that are not LoL.

Is this not LTR? It is listed as FB6 in the FCC database and the company is said to do trunks but they are an authorized Motorola dealer, but the one set does not sound anything like any Motorola control channel I've ever heard.

All these frequencies are in the 461-463 range, it's just key-up, a second of nothing, key-up, second of nothing, key-up, over and over.

it's probably passport which you can't monitor w/ just a scanner (you need a computer and special trunking software and it's probably not worth it).
