progamming

Gonna be mainly programming my Yaesu FTM-500D via ad card, my Ft710 and some baofengs and maybe an anytone... Is there any advantage to RT systems vs chirp or factory software??

Howdy folks. I'm trying to figure out if I can program a minitor 6 pager with just the pins on a USB to TTL with CP2102 chip like you can with the older minitors.

Hi, I'm very new to programming motorolas. I've programmed Baofengs and Ailunce HD1s before, which I've been able to figure out. But I'm having trouble with this new Motorola XTS 5000R I bought. I'm trying to program a frequency in it in the UHF band (453.x), but it says its invalid on Astro...

So this may be dumb and I’m sorry but I am new to this and need help. I looked up the radio frequency needed for my areas. I know some are still analog but some department went to digital. So I need to know what kinda digital police scanner I need also does it need to be phase I or phase II? I...

Hi there! I have been doing a lot of research, trying to understand, on how to exactly get the most of my Uniden SDS 200. It has certainly been an experience as this is all a foreign language to me. Not to bore, but, after my fathers passing I picked it us as I have listened to scanners with...

Hello fellow Texans, I am new to the scanner world. I am looking at getting the Uniden BCD325P2. Will this work for monitoring public safety freqs in Bexar Co, Hays Co, and Travis Co? It looks like agencies such as San Antonio PD are now encrypted? Is it possible to use the above scanner to...

Hey again. Seems like I have no end of trouble with scanners. I'm an amateur, so forgive me. I can NOT figure out how to program my two scanners with their respective Bell Fleetnet - Government Zone 1 frequencies and trunked systems. I've tried to follow Fort's "Programming your Uniden 396XT...

Hello, Does anyone know how LAPD or LASD have their radio's setup? Which channel's/freqs are in which zones? Are they all setup the same or does each station/area have theirs setup however they want? Thanks.

Hey guys! Just had a quick question, my city I work in just switched over the radio systems to a P25 digital system. I found a used Kenwood NX-5800K that I was looking to buy. The seller told me that it is NXDN/Analog capable but I’d have to purchase a P25 upgrade option for it. Just out of...

Need help with the programming. I need to reprogram about 300 radios due to a programming error. I have the system key file, but it keeps erroring out, saying "No system key file having the same system parameters as configured for NXDN Trunking System Zone was found" We are using the same...

I am a premium user of Radio Reference and I am trying to programing my Baofeng UV-82s using Chirp. Using Chirp to program my radios is a breeze but I can not figure out hoe to set up Chirp with frequencies from Radio reference. I can't query or do anything else for that matter. Can someone...

I have a BC796D scanner, a guy at my FD programmed it for me using the computer. I am not sure what software. I just need to add a tac channel to Richmond and would like to add Richmond ambulance and also VSP. I am clueless when it comes to programming trunk. If anyone can help that would be great.
