• 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.

APX 7000XE Questions

Hi All,

We have a few APX 7000XE radios at my FD and I have a few questions:

1. It is possible to program an APX 7000 XE to show you your GPS coordinates or will it only allow you to transmit your location?

2. Is there any place that will upgrade the 1.5’s to 3.5? It has been hard finding info about that since they have been discontinued.

3. What is the ballpark cost to upgrade the flash code to include TDMA on an APX 7000 XE that only has P25 phase 1?

Thanks in advance to anyone that might be able to answer these questions!

1. You should be able to program a button which will show your coordinates.
2. Most likely no.
3. Don't know. I would check with a dealer.
