• 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.

Usually Hytera comes out with a press release about their appeal plans but so far no word from them.
I wonder how many countries Motorola filed in other than Germany and the US? I remember when Lindows was getting sued by Microsoft, they filed in a number of countries to tie them up.

Will be an interesting time at the IWCE dealers meeting if the meeting and or show isn't canceled by corona virus fears/spread or the dealers not getting paid to come because Hytera is out of business.

I forgot about the Chinese influence. Did I mention I caught the flu at the show last year?

I got the bug during the first day of the expo in 2017, my wife got hit with it the day we got home. My Hytera dealer friend in TX got sick that year too, he's not going this year. Got sick after 2014 or 2015 too.
