• 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.

So the radio apparently supports decoding and maybe sending mint what basically equates to QC2, and euro 5 tone as well as what seems to be Baofetg’s reverse engineering of MDC1200. How does one get that to work? I can’t quite figure it out, tried all sorts of button presses and combos on the default programmed “2 Tone Call” channel(which lies in the 70cm HAM band way I add so it’s lea with me using my callsign)
But I cannot for anything I do get this thing to send any form of 2 tone of 5 tone signaling.

It's a bit complex. First, go to the CPS menu ANALOG/TWO TONE and set your basic tone parameters (be sure to check the side tone box); Next, set your TX tone parameters in the CALL ALERT matrix to the right; Next, set a programmable button for a CALL ALERT selection;

Save your modified codeplug and send it to the radio.

To send a 2-tone page, select your page channel and push the programmable button designated for CALL ALERT.
