• 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 have an older AT-D878UV that I bought from a friend (I think he used it like once) and just recently bought another one but with the Bluetooth option, so they are basically the same. Both have firmware v1.21 loaded on them as well as the Hardware version (1.00) and Radio Data version (1.00). They both have the same codeplug loaded on them as well (the BT model has those options set).

I set up a single simplex freq in DMR and and tried encryption. If I go under "Optional Settings, Other" and set encryption type to "common" and select Digital Encryption on the channel to 1. If I load both radios like this, they can encode/decode correctly.

If I change the encryption to AES under "Optional Settings, Other" and select an AES Digital Encryption key on the channel settings then write to both radios, the new radio will transmit and I can hear the encrypted traffic on the older radio. It sounds about the same on a scanner too. If I transmit on the older radio with the same codeplug and everything, it will only transit for a second and then stops.

Any ideas?

Did you end up using a different mode, or did you only update the baseband?
