Bearcom BC300D CPS

[noahhendrix97]

Would someone happen to know which CPS version will program Bearcom BC300D's? I had thought it was the same as the Motorola BPR40D CPS, however when trying to read from the radio I get an error "Program Error #14 Unsupported model number."

I have a Bearcom BC300d which I would have thought would be programmed with BPR40d CPS but I haven't been able to get the radio to Read with the CPS. I have was also told by someone on Facebook that Bearcom had there own CPS for this radio but wanted to check here first before trying to contact...

We have a Motorola account, including software downloads/purchases. After speaking with Motorola account support and BearCom (separately), "no one" can obtain the BearCom BC300D programming software. I got an email from a Motorola support manager (from a case number) who stated:

" BearCom programming software is only distributed to BearCom owned shops only, and it not available from Motorola by any end user, nor a regular Motorola dealer. The BearCom software is purposely not found in any of the Motorola account websites, nor is it even available for purchase. That is because of a proprietary license agreement between Motorola & BearCom, as the BearCom models only use the BearCom licensed software, and not normal Motorola software. "

I called BearCom corporate HQ in TX and they don't sell or offer the software to anyone. He said they are not allowed to allow the end user to have it, which explains the strict control. That is the reason their policy is a non-BearCom rental (earning no revenue), they charge a flat rate of $50 per radio to program.
