    Radio programming

    Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone in the Los Angeles area could program some HT 600s for a friend of mine. The channels would mostly be amateur repeaters and GMRS repeaters. He has both licenses. He would be willing to pay a small fee for the programming services. Thanks
