• 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've been using this software to program my TK-7180 for years. Made some changes yesterday and today and software reads/writes fine. Saved the file today and went to reopen and found the file blank. Tried a couple times with same result.

Re-installed the software and getting same result.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Not sure what OS your using, but try to right click on the exe and select “run as administrator”. That may solve your save problem.

You may just need a clean install. I had one of the KPG programs on my computer go wonky a few years back, I don't recall now exactly which one or what the aberrant behavior was (did I mention it's been several years?) but uninstalling it and deleting all traces, followed bu a clean install, solved the problem.

A couple of weeks ago, I tried to re-program my Yaeau FT-8900. Would not complete the write to the radio. A simple reboot of the computer took care of it, I was using an Acer netbook with Windows 7. That's about all l use the computer for. It has a flock of "programming programs" on it,

Try the reboot.
