• 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.

Today, I was getting an allergy shot. I was holding one of my Uniden scanners, so he asked if it was HAM. We starting talking and he indicated he was a former PI and Deputy Sheriff. He stated that he used to use the CB for PI work.

I told him I never want to operate any HAM radio. I mentioned I did want the federal government knowing anything more about me.

Then, we talked about the radio I was using, Anytone 10 meter, 500-M. He told me that the current administration was responsible for bringing the CB license back.

I already knew he did not know siht about what he was talking about.

While I was driving on IH35 yesterday, someone started saying I needed to get rid of the roger beep cause it sounded awful. He complimented the radio's signal.

I love this radio. It seems as though the audio output is greater than my Classic Cobra 25/29 models.

Yes, they can. Why in the name of God would someone put a thumbs down icon to my post, weird.
