• 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 APX CPS Conventional Personality, "Current" vs "Default"

Hello All,

I'm having this issue with CPS 27.00.01 when trying to create new Conventional Personalities. My goal is to essentially copy/paste 6 new personalities with the same setups as the selected one to be re-named for each apparatus (this is for a reserve apparatus so that when swapped for a front-line rig, they can switch to the right profile and transmit as their normal rig with MDC IDs).

When I select the the personality in the Conventional Personality -> Table View, then select Current in the drop down and hit the "+", nothing happens. But when the dropdown is set to Default, it will add new blank personalities all day.

Is there a lock on the personalities somewhere that I need to uncheck for this to work? Or is there some software/hardware key lock I need to have loaded up?

Please let me know if you need more information to flesh out this problem, and hopefully solve it.

Thanks for your help!

There was a bug in some of the more recent CPS releases that prevented cloning of personalities. I don't recall when it was fixed, but I just checked R29.00.03 and it works fine.
